The Head of Household filing status has added tax advantages over filing single.  However, there are specific criteria to qualify for it.

 

Head of Household status allows parents or adults with qualifying dependents who provide over half the cost of keeping up a home for a qualifying person to claim a higher standard deduction and be taxed at lower tax rates than single taxpayers.

 

To qualify for head of household, you must have a qualifying child or a dependent. However, a custodial parent may be eligible to claim head of the household status.

 

If you have a qualifying child or a dependent, or you are a custodial parent, you probably do qualify for Head of Household status.
