I am married, but separated. Is it better to file married but separate or Head of household?

Were you separated for at least the last six months of 2024? Are you the custodial parent of the children?

If you qualify for Head of Household, there may be better tax benefits. See Guide to Filing Taxes as Head of Household - TurboTax - Intuit.

yes, separated for one year. I have a son who is 23 in school that I will claim as a dependent.

Head of Household is better if you qualify. @Smithcel
