In April of Year 1, Martin left his wife, Marianne. While the couple was apart, they were not legally divorced. Marianne found herself having to financially provide for the couple's only child (who qualifies as Marianne's dependent) and to pay all the costs of maintaining the household. When Marianne filed her tax return for Year 1, she filed a return separate from Martin. What is Marianne's most favorable filing status for Year 1?

    Answer:filing as the head of household

    Explanation:

    Head of household.

    - Despite the fact that Marriane was no longer living with Martin over the past six months but since they were not legally divorced it makes them to be still legally married as of the end of that tax year.

    Marriane contributed more than half in support of the household and in providing for their dependent child and since she filed separately from her husband she will then use the head of household which is found from the abandoned spouse provision section.
