OK...if the dependent is showing up as being either a dependent child or a dependent relative after you complete the section for the entering them as dependents. The program should give you some indication that they have been approved as a dependent.
Your Filing Status must be either Single or Married Filing Separately.
Once that happens the program is going to ask you specific questions to determine whether you are eligible for Head of Household status. The questions asked are did you provide over one-half the cost to maintain your residence. If filing as Married Filing Separately did your spouse live in the household at any time in the last six months of the year. Answer No.
