Head of Household

I am divorced and my daughter lives solely with me.  I have claimed her as a dependent the last several years and I have filed as Head of Household.  My daughter turned 19 in JUly 2024 and graduated HS in JUne 2024.  MY daughter has autism and mental illness.  I have provided 100% of her living expenses.  She has no job/income.  Turbo Tax will not allow me to claim HoH in 2024?  Why?  My daughter lived with me 100% of the time and is considered a full time student in 2024.

When entering her as your dependent, did your enter that she lived with you for the whole year.  Did you enter that she was a full time student.  Did you enter that you provided over one-half of her support (or did you indicate that she did NOT provide over one-half of her own support).  Did you NOT check the box "not valid of employment" in the Social Security number section.

 

If all answers are correct, delete her as a dependent and re-enter.

I deleted her as a dependent and re-entered her data.  It now works. Looks like there is a glitch in the Turbo Tax software.

 

Thanks.
