Seperation

[4I]

My husband moved out Dec. 2020. He filed for Legal Separation April 2021. As of yet nothing has been done. How do I file for 2021? Head of household?

If you have a dependent child and meet the other requirements you would be able to file as Head of Household.

See this TurboTax support for Head of Household when married - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/married/help/can-a-married-person-claim-head-of-household-filing-s...

Your filing status is determined by your status as of 12/31 of your tax year.  There are options since it seems from your question you were still technically married as of 12/31/21. 

There are different situations that are necessary for each option as well as some options that deny you some credits.  Since I don't know your whole situation, please see What is my tax filing status (single, married, etc.)? for the best info to help you out.
