It also generally includes each individual you can, but don't, claim as a dependent on your tax return. So your tax household would include yourself, your spouse (if married), and any dependents such as children or relatives that you support.\r\n\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\r\nYour tax household doesn't include someone you can, but don't, claim as a dependent if the dependent is properly claimed on another person's return or can be claimed by another person with higher priority under the tie-breaker rules.\r\n\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\r\nFor example, if you live alone and you don't have any dependents, then your tax household is just you.\r\n\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>\r\nOn the other hand, if you're married and have two children that you're claiming as dependents then your tax household includes you, your spouse, and your two children.",1777391586165]
