Qualifying widow/widower filing status refers to the concept which applies to the surviving spouses who have dependent child with them. Such filling status helps the surviving spouse to file taxes jointly with their deceased spouse. It gives tax benefits to the qualifying widow/widower status which provides the standard deduction for a married couple filing jointly.
