Wait----if you were divorced before the end of 2024, you cannot file as married filing separately for 2024, nor can you file that way for 2025. If you were divorced before the end of 2024, you file as Single. Or if you are the custodial parent of the children you might file Head of Household. Filing as married if you are divorced is not an option.
What tax year are you working on right now? You are mistaken if you think you can file married filing separately for a tax year in which you were divorced.
