Answer:

B. Qualifying widower

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this situation the most favorable filing status that Miguel qualifies for is a Qualifying Widow. An individual can qualify for this status in years 2 and 3. This status allows the individual to retain all the benefits of the Married Filing Jointly status for about 2 years after the death of the spouse but must have a dependent child.
