If you're legally separated, you can use Single or Head of Household (if you have an eligible dependent) status. If you're not legally separated, you have to use Married Filing Separately filing status.
Refer to the IRS website Filing taxes after divorce or separation for additional information.
Review the TurboTax article What is a "qualifying person" for Head of Household? for more information.
