If you are divorced, you would not be considered married for tax purposes, and as such, would not have any community property filing requirements.

 

If however, you have requirement to file Form 8958, you will need to mail in your tax return as it cannot be electronically filed.  Your marital status isn't reflected as Married Filing Jointly or Separately, so the form will not process as it isn't technically required if you aren't married.  

 

You can switch your filing status to Married Filing Separately to generate the form per the instructions previously provided but will need to switch your status back to Head of Household before you complete your return.  You can then print your tax return and attach Form 8958 as required per your agreement to meet your filing obligations.
