The possible response categories are: Single; Married, filing joint return; Married, filing separately; Head of household with qualifying person; or Qualifying widow(er) with dependent children.

 

This question was asked as part of a series of questions about tax filing. Before being asked these questions, respondents were told it might be useful to have out some of their family's financial records, such as a copy of the family's tax forms or materials used to complete the tax form, such as yearend bank statements, financial summaries, pay stubs, W-2 forms, and the like.
