The head-of-household status was created in response to the growing frequency of single parent families.
The tax treatment for this status assumes one adult with one or more dependents (since single was not fair to single parents and they did not qualify for the married status choices).
You are only entitled the the HOH status if you have any dependents. One thing that people sometimes overlook, though is that dependents may be either children or parents (or others) if you provide signficant financial support (and meet the other IRS tests for a dependent).

You can only claim head of household if you are an unmarried individual with at least one dependent.
With the information you provided in your question, you need to file as single.

Head of household status is only for people who have a dependent that meets certain rules. So no, you can't.

No, for head of family members you will desire to have a qualifying based. For head of family members you will desire to be single or did not stay which includes your better half for final six months of the year and have a qualifying based and pay better than a million/2 the value of the family members.

there is more to it than dependents. HOH is used a lot by tax crooks looking to get more money (and the noose is quickly tightning around that) Your status is SINGLE YOU MUST FILE SINGLE!
