Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you are filing HOH, an individual over the age of 24 who earns more than $4700 (2023) does not qualify you to file HOH.  Unless there is another indiviudal who qualifies you for HOH, you filing status would typically be SINGLE or Married-Filing Separate (you did not indicate whether you are single, divorced or separated).

 

To file HOH, you must have a Qualifying Child or a Qualifying Relative that meets certain conditions. 

 

And the HOH filing rules are different if you are truly "unmarried" vs. married but living apart from your spouse. 

 

It can get complicated to explain, so best to use this tool to determine if you can qualify for HOH filing.
