I am just looking for clarification. I have a no contact order against my husband. I have lived in my house for 9 months without him, so I am "considered not married", correct? Does this mean I can file Single and take the standard deduction, or Divorced/Separated? Can I take the "full" standard deduction since I have been living in the house and keeping up on all the bills? I did have my son living with me July - December 2024, and I paid all the bills. Can I file HOH and put him down even though he was working and will be filing his own taxes?
