Are you Single or Married Filing Separately and have a qualifying person as a dependent? If not, you are not eligible for Head of Household.

When you prepare your return in TurboTax, start with the Personal Info or My Info section. This is where you will encounter the questions and entry fields to correctly identify your filing status. At "About your household", you indicate whether you are married or single. Your answers to the questions that follow help TurboTax to determine whether your correct status is Single or Head of Household if you are not married.

Head of Household filing status typically allows parents or adults with qualifying dependents who provide over half the cost of keeping up a home for a qualifying person to claim a higher standard deduction and be taxed at lower tax rates than single taxpayers or those who are married filing separately.

See this TurboTax tax tips article for more information regarding head of household filing status.
