The head of family or head of household statutory exemption in the State of Florida exempts the unlimited wages of a salaryman who is the head of the family from the exemption.
Exempt wages placed in a bank account are generally exempt for up to six months.
A head of household is defined as a person who provides more than one-half of the support of another person whom such person [the head of household] has a moral or legal obligation to support. The supported person may be a parent, child, spouse, or relative and does not necessarily need to reside in the same residence as the head of household.
A business owner, as opposed to a salaried employee may find difficulty in claiming the head of household exemption. A business owner who has entered a contractual relationship with the company or preferably a corporation, and who receives regular and periodic payments of salary would more likely qualify for such exemption, if so needed.
