Your daughter can file either Head of Household, if she has a dependent and otherwise qualifies, or Married Filing Separately.
I am sorry about what happened to your daughter.
Since your daughter is still married she must file with one of the married statuses or Head of Household.
To File Head of Household:
- File a separate Tax Return.
- You paid more than half of the cost of keeping up your home for the tax year.
- Your spouse did not live in the home during the last 6 months of the tax year.
- Your home was the main home for your child, stepchild, or foster child for at least 6 months of the tax year and you claim the child as a dependent.
