If your husband has not lived with you at any time after June 30, then you'd be able to file as head of household. Otherwise you'll have to file married filing separately, if you have enough income to have to file at all for 2006.
For 2007 (filed in early 2008) you should be able to file head of household even if the legal situation is not straightened out by then. Head of household is a better filing status than single, and is definitely better than married filing separately. So on a W-4 you'd be pretty safe putting single, 2 allowances (you and your son). Your son is living with you, so you'll get an exemption for him unless by then there's a written agreement that someone else (like your ex) can claim him.
Good luck. |

judy is right i did taxes for a couple of years and thats what they will tell you to do it wont be bad you might actually make out better without him you should also look into what services the government in your area offer you having a baby can all at up so you want to give yourself every advantage so you and your son come out ahead in the long run |

Well one claim is that he is an ******** ....but that won't matter to the IRS alas.
There is always an abundance of free & knowledgeable tax help :
sometimes the IRS 'help'-lines(they used to have 1800 phone numbers - not sure if they are still toll-free or not these days) , other times you can find volunteer staff at various locations in a municipality near you providing free tax form assistance.
SO you should definitely take advantage and find out what 'legally' are your options AND what a tax expert says is the 'best' option for you.
Now having said that I'd hazard an educated guess that they will tell you to file separately and claim your son as long as you will be doing most of the financial support of your son - your hubby would create some ugly legal issues if he then claimed your son and it probably wouldnt turn out well for him (though one never knows with the judicial system). |

Claim your son as an exemption on your W4. At filing time Definately file single. Also be sure to claim your son as a single parent you're gonna get a bunch of money back. Be sure to file for divorce on the grounds of abandonment. If you'r efeeling like it give your husband's name and SSN to the IRS and tell them that he might try to claim the child ilegally. |

File as single-head of household |

by law you have to file married until you are leagally separated or divorced. as for your son, youdon't state his age or if he works. if not, then you can claim him if he has lived with you the last 6 months of the year 2006. youy can't claim head of household uless you are awarded custody of your son and you provide over 50% of his support. Good luck in your new job!! iv'e been there! |

If you are still legally married then you are married and cannot claim single status, the individual who answered earlier that said this is wrong. Regarding the w4, you should fill it out as accurately as possible so that the money deducted closely matches what you will owe. You should also seek out professional tax advice and legal counsel so that you don't wind up in a worse situation than you are already in. Good luck! |

Melissa:
I am so sorry to hear about your situation. It's tough to cope with something like that.
You should probably claim single and 2 on your W-4 unless your husband comes back and you work things out. As for your 2006 return, you will still file married filing joint.
I hope things work out for you. You should contact your local church to see what resources are available to you. |
