- Your father, mother, grandparent, or other direct ancestor, but not foster parent.
- Your stepfather or stepmother.
- A son or daughter of your brother or sister.
- A son or daughter of your half brother or half sister.
- A brother or sister of your father or mother.
- Your son-in-law, daughter-in-law, father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law.
Any of these relationships that were established by marriage aren't ended by death or divorce.
They must have lived with you for more than half the year.
See Pub 501 for all the requirements
"But Turbo tax does not allow H-O-H if you enter "Married"."
Not clear if you mean YOU are married or the dependent is married.
