Question

My ex gets to claim our child on taxes per our divorce decree. Can he file for HOH even though our child doesn't stay with him but maybe 45 overnights a year?

Good afternoon.  It appears that you are a do it yourselfer.  You are asking a question on a professional tax software site for paid professionals.  If you and your ex are going to do your own returns you need to take the time do both do some research.  Here are a couple of links that may help.  Tax software does not make one a competent tax preparer.  

Good luck.
