Head of household is a term related to tax filing. By the IRS definition, the head of household is the individual in the house who has paid more than half of the expenses of the home during the 12-month calendar year. Beyond the IRS, the term has come to mean generally the person in charge in the house. This is usually the working adult who has the greatest income. Dependents are slotted in under the head of household.
Filing as the head of household makes you subject to different tax brackets than other filers, which can potentially save thousands of dollars depending on your annual income. As the head of household, you can earn more income than single filers before reaching the top tax brackets. For example, a head of household filer pays a tax rate of 25 percent on income earned between $47,351 and $122,300 in 2012, while the 25 percent tax bracket for single filers starts at $35,351 in annual income and ends at $85,650.
