A Concern About Dependent Status and Tax Filing

Hi! I’m a 21-year-old full-time student with an income of $13,000 for 2024. My father, who made $16,000 in 2024, wants to claim me as a dependent on his tax return. However, when I applied for Marketplace health coverage for 2024, I accidentally stated that no one else would claim me as a dependent. 

How should I file my taxes in this situation? Can my father still claim me as a dependent, and how might this impact my tax return and his?
