Deductions & credits
Since you did not receive any of the proceeds of this sale, it can definitely be argued that you are considered a "Nominee" for the purposes of this sale. The actual treatment that should have occurred for you to be filed as a nominee is currently both late and very soon but you can still file the forms you need to for nominee status.
In the case of a nominee for Form 1099-S, you need to file Form 1096 and 1099-S with the Internal Revenue Service. You also needed to submit Form 1099-S to your father for the amount shown on your 1099-S by February 15, 2023. Detailed instructions of whom to place as payer, filer, recipient, etc., are included in the instructional link below. The submission to the IRS of the 1096 and 1099-S needs to be made by February 28, 2023.
You have little time to complete this. While I cannot say for certain, the closing agency should have made you aware of what was going to and what needed to be transpired for full disclosure.
As an alternative, and depending on your relationship with your father, ask if you can use the information that your father will show as to the sale of the condo for his half of the sale. Since you did not live there you would not qualify for the sale of personal residence exclusion and the sale will possibly show a capital gain. You can calculate what the gain will cost you in extra tax and ask for reimbursement since he kept all the proceeds.
