FilingStatusInformation

• FilingStatusInformation includes the filing status used in the return.

• The MFS element was created to group the information needed for the spouse when the status is married filing separately.

• Under the MFS element is the Name element. This is bolded to show that this element has been previously used. This simplifies the hierarchy by not needing to again list the components.

• The Head of Household information is for the qualifying dependent.
