    I am Married and have not applied for a dependent visa for my spouse, I came to the US in March (mid 2012), and I am going to be in the US till September, no plans of getting my husband here.I do not have kids.

    Please clarify as to what should I fill in the Personal Allowances Worksheet

    A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,

    3.radio button where it says single/Married/Married but withhold at higher single rate.

    How many points do I qualify for?

    Thanks!

    If you AND your husband are both working, you BOTH need to over-withhold.

    BOTH of you should claim SINGLE status with ONE allowance.

    1.will I be eligible for head of house hold then?

    And
    2.in the place where it asks for the marital status, should I just select Single?

    Select SINGLE. Head of Household requires children.
