In the sentence given in the question, the word “were” should be replaced by the word “was”

Thus, the correct form of the sentence is "Neither my father nor my mother was present at the party".

When they are used in this sentence it refers to mom separately and dad separately so the word was is used because the verb “were” is used for plural form.

As the name indicates, the neither comes first and the nor follows it in the sentence.
