Received a decree of divorce in Oct 2010. Judgement of dissolution was entered on 10/5/2010, but date marital status ends on 2/8/2011 because of 6 months waiting period.
Was I considered “unmarried” for tax purposes? Am I qualified to use head of household to file 2010 tax?
Thanks!

You have to be divorced for 6 or more months in 2010, however you can still file “married filing seperate” or if you file together you can claim head of household if you made the most.
