Tax Return with Green Card Pendent

I'm married to an American citizen. I have my SS card and I don't work in the USA. I'm still waiting on the decision (approval) on my I-485 form (Application to register permanent residence or Adjust status) USCIS, I'm doubtful if I can file the tax return in the USA or if I can only declare when I have the green card. Thanks

Tax Return with Green Card Pendent

If you are living in the US and did not earn any income in 2018, you do not need to file a US tax return.

If you are not in the US and have not received your green card, you do not need to file a US return.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Yes, I am living in the US and I earn in my country of origin (Brazil). Do I need to report if I am still waiting about my green card? Thanks for your help.
