Hello,
I moved to the US on May 1st, 2022, and have worked for a company in MA since that. My spouse and my children were living outside of the US in 2022, and they hadn't been to the US before. Before I went to MA, I worked for a foreign company in the early 4 months of 2022. When I was using Turbotax, it recommended I use the Married Filling Jointly status.
1) Since my spouse didn't live in MA, she had no health insurance. When I was doing my MA state return, Turbotax showed that there was a penalty for not meeting MCC. What can I do to avoid this penalty? Need I change the filling status to the Head of Household?
2) As for my situation, need I to try Dual Status Reporting? When I tried to report 1040-NR in Sprintax, it prevented me to do that.
3) How do I report the wage income outside of the US in 2022?
Many thanks.
