Can I claim myself as a dependent.. I'm single. Would like to claim head of household.. Is this possible?

When you file as single, you are claiming yourself unless you say in Personal Info that someone else can claim you. So you get the $4050 personal exemption that lowers the amount of income that you are taxed on. If you have no qualified dependent relative, you cannot be head of household.
