Dovorce in Feb, 2024. What is my filing Status on 2024 taxes

Divorced is not a filing status for a tax return.  You are asked if you are divorced in order to help navigate you to the correct filing status of Single or possibly Head of Household ---if you are the custodial parent of the children you might be able to file as Head of Household.

 

Am I Head of Household?

If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your marital status (single or married filing separately) into MyInfo, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.

 

If you do not have a qualified dependent for HOH  filing status you will file as Single for 2024.

 

 It is best to start a new account with a new user ID.   It is too difficult to delete the embedded information from a spouse if you use the same account that was used for past joint returns.
