@ErnieS0  I tried your method above and the option to let the other parent claim the child never came up just like when I selected that I have a custody agreement.


For the workaround to work you must select that you do NOT have a custody agreement.    [Saying that you DO have a custody agreement is the bug].

 

When you say that you do NOT have an agreement then the question asking if the other parent is claiming will appear and if answered yes, will make the child a non-dependent allowing HOH.
