Thank you.
My question is more of an intellectual curiosity about Turbotax's logic, since I know what the ultimate result should be.
I take it that the Turbotax question on waiving legal right is simply a poor redundant question or poor logic. (to answer your Q, yes - separate residences and Turbotax suggested HoH. I have no questions or concerns about it). It is easy to change my response to satisfy TurboTax by answering Yes "the legal right is waived" and that's fine all around. I found the question unnecessary and misleading since it led me to the incorrect result. The previous questions have already established per IRS definition that I am the custodial parent since no other written agreements apply. Perhaps it should ask first if anyone else has a legal right before asking if it has been waived. I found it odd is all.
Again, thanks.
