I'm filing married, head if household, with one child, in kentucky. I've noticed they've stopped taking federal taxes out of my paycheck because I'm not making enough money. Will I have to pay in the federal money they aren't taking out? And will I get anything back in taxes since they aren't taking it out?

First of all--you can file married filing jointly or married filing separately----but you cannot file as married AND file as Head of Household.   Have you been living apart from your spouse for at least the last half of 2024, and do you have the children?   You *might* be able to file as HOH if that is the case.

 

As for whether you will get a refund or owe tax due, we cannot see any of your information and you have not told us how much income you have had, or how much tax was withheld, etc. etc.

 

 

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.
