If I can no longer use the Head of Household, single status, as I no longer can claim a dependent, should I use the filing Single option and then use my Itemized deductions as they may be more advantageous than the Standard Deduction for filing Single. i.e. $12,200?

Yes, if you aren't able to claim Head of Household (HOH) and you're Single, enter your tax deductions. If your Itemized Deductions are more than the Single Standard Deduction, TurboTax will automatically choose the Itemized Deductions.

Additional information: Do I qualify for Head of Household?
