Did you already e-file? How did you forget? If you entered your information correctly the software would have offered HOH to you.

Am I Head of Household?

If you qualify as Head of Household, when you enter your filing status (single or married filing separately) into Personal Info, and then enter your qualifying dependent, TurboTax will offer HOH as your filing status.

If your information qualifies you to file as Head of Household (HOH), TurboTax will suggest that filing status.

Make sure you meet all the requirements of Head of household and that you answered all the questions related to you and your dependent.

You can qualify for Head of Household if you:

Were unmarried as of December 31 this year and
Paid more than half the cost to run your (or a qualifying parent's) home this year(rent, mortgage, utilities, etc.) and
Supported a qualifying person.
