the structure is like water but with F where hydrogen should be and S where oxygen should be so its F-S-F but of course its bent. but make sure you don't forget the 2 pair of electron pairs on the S. the angles shrinks by 1 degree give or take

F-S-F

The fluorine atoms should have 6 valence electrons surrounding them without including the elctron from the sulfur-fluorine bond.

The sulfur atom should have 4 valence electrons surroudning it.

Ensure that Flourine is not breaking the octet rule as it is a smaller atom and is not known to do so. They should both have neutral charges so no charge is required to be written.

each fluoride bonds with the sulfur once. So sulfur will end up with 6 electron in its valence level. This molecule doesn't follow the octet rule.
