Yep (assuming she meets all of the other requirements).

That is a great day to have a baby.  They make such a big deal about the "new year's baby", but all I think about is the lost tax benefits for the year.

Just to clarify, you said "unwed mother" and "husband", which doesn't make sense.

Did you mean "father", rather than "husband"?

Contradictory info there. I had to re-read.
