Hey ToddL99. Here's another reference I found from TurboTax's site: "In some cases, you may be eligible to file as head of household even if you are unable to claim your child as a dependent." Please see https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/family/guide-to-filing-taxes-as-head-of-household/L4Nx6DYu9 und... the section labeled Qualifying child.
