How can I change my status for current years taxes unfilled from married to single

I have not submitted my return yet so there is no need to amend. I need help changing my status before I submit current year's return. Can someone please direct me where I can change this

If you were legally married on 12/31/2023 then you can only file your 2023 tax return as Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately.

If you were no longer legally married in 2023 but used this account to file as Married for prior year tax returns then you need to create a new account with a new User ID.
