You received two replies to your other post---and both of those replies explained to you why you cannot file as Head of Household.    If you have lived with your spouse for at least the last six months of 2024, you cannot file as HOH.   Your choices are to file MFJ or MFS.   One thing you might want to consider doing is to file MFJ and also include the "injured spouse" form so that you can still receive the refund that can be attributed to your own income.
