Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Describe your qualifying person.

Two common situations:

1. You are the non custodial parent and are claiming your child as a dependent, this year.  That child is not a qualifying person for HoH, because he/she does not live with you enough. 

2. You claim your girlfriend as a dependent.  She  is not a qualifying person for HoH, because she is not related

 

Otherwise, you have, most likely, answered something wrong in the interview.
