Change my filing status

In order to file as Head of Household, you must have a dependent.  If you haven't already filed your return, you can change your filing status from Single to Head of Household by following these steps:

  1. Click on the Personal Info tab.
  2. On the Personal info Summary screen, click on the Add a dependent box.  [See Screenshot #1, below.]
  3. Continue through the screens, entering the requested information.
  4. TurboTax will automatically change your filing status from Single to Head of Household.
