    No, you need to file single. If your boyfriend lived with you the entire year and say, did not work at all and you supported him, you may claim him as a dependent provided he is a US citizen. You would then file single and claim him as a dependent. You are not a head of household.

    Thanks That's What I Thought! I Was Pretty Sure I Had To Have A Dependent To Do That. And He Works So That Won't Work.
