I am 63 year old female. My 45 year old daughter and I live together and she files head of household. She has a good income. I am low income. We do not own the home. I have large medical bill and make $200 monthly payments on it. My question is, can action be taken on my daughter to hold her responsible for it in any way? Thank you, Linda
