Since you were married on December 31, 2018 you have to file as Married
Filing Jointly (MFJ) or Married Filing Separate (MFS). As a US Citizen
or a Resident Alien, you have two choices in filing your taxes.
Option 1
Treat
your spouse as resident alien for tax purposes. If you do this, you
will need to include your spouse's worldwide income in your US tax
return and it will be subject to US taxes. To do this follow these
