My husband is in jail and has been there since may16 2018 I have three kids and supporting him do I claim head of household
Keep filing the way you were - Married Filing Jointly. Neither of you should file as Head of Household since you are married. You get a better deduction as Married Filing Jointly. It doesn't matter that he is in jail, that doesn't change your filing status. You can still claim the MFJ filing status.
Why weren't you filing a joint return? That would be the obvious choice both last year and this, assuming that you guys really are married.
We are married I was just asking to we fill jointly or do I just file head of household for the last two years we have filed as married, but with him being incarcerated I didn’t know do I just file the same way we have been doing it
