You got some incorrect information somewhere or from someone. There is no rule that says you have to wait a few years to file HOH again.

If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your filing status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.
