Dependents are entered in MY INFO. Only certain dependents can be qualifying dependents for HOH filing status.

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.
