I am a US Citizen living abroad (Germany) with my non resident alien wife and our 3 kids. I would like to file as Head of Household - how to do this?

It is my understanding from e.g. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/us-citizens-and-resident-aliens-abroad-head-... that I can file as Head of Household if my wife is a NRA and I do have a child living in my home (regardless of US citizenship) and pay more than half the costs. This applies to me, however in TurboTax it will tell me that the children do not qualify - is this correct even for a household abroad? Is there a way to achieve this in TurboTax?
