Get your taxes done using TurboTax
First, so sorry for your loss. Since your husband passed away in 2022 you would have filed Married Filing Jointly (MFJ) for that tax year. Since you have children you would file Qualified Surviving Spouse for tax years 2023 and 2024. That allows you the MFJ standard deduction. For 2025, assuming you still have a qualifying child, you file head of household.
Here is Publication 501 for more information on filing status.
