How to change my filing status?

Are you claiming a qualified dependent? (Your qualified dependent for HOH filing status cannot be a GF or BF or their child.)

Am I Head of Household?

What is a "qualifying person" for 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.
