Joint tax returns with a single child are not permitted if a family unit is formed with another child

A widower with a child from a previous marriage and a child with his current partner asks whether he can file joint tax returns with each child separately and claim the single-parent family reduction. The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) responds that it is not possible to belong to two family units simultaneously and that the €2,150 reduction does not apply if he cohabits with the other parent.
