You may be able to file Single or Head of Household. Head of Household filers can have a lower taxable income and greater potential refund than when using the single filing status. The Head of Household filing status can claim a roughly 50% larger standard deduction than single filers ($20,800 vs $13,850 for 2023). Heads of Household can also use wider tax brackets that allow more of their taxable income to fall into lower tax brackets. For more details: Single vs Head of Household
