Deductions & credits
Thanks!
Regarding filing as "Head of Household", I found the below link referred to by TurboTax and saw the following details :
Although your nonresident spouse cannot qualify you as a head of household, you can qualify if 1 or 2 applies:
- You paid more than half the cost of keeping up a home that was the principal home for the whole year for your mother or father whom you can claim as a dependent (your parent does not have to have lived with you), or
I do support my parents and the principal home they live in. Even though I "can" claim them as dependents, can I choose not to do so and still qualify for "Head of Household" status ?
