Your fiance can claim you only if your fiance paid more than half the cost of maintaining the home and you did not earn more than $3,400 in 2007. Cost of maintaining a house includes rent and expenses of all three of you.
You can file a joint return if you live in a state where common law marriage is recognized. Once the common law marriage is recogonized, the divorce is not a common law divorce. It must be regular divorce just like in case of married persons.
If you wish to file joint return as common law marriage (and is recognised in your state), then you will file amended tax return. Your fiance must also amend the tax return.
