Did he live in the US at all in 2023?  Does he still have a valid ITIN?

 

Does he still need to file tax in 2024 and what tax form he needs to report after abandoning green card or he doesn't need to file tax at all in 2024? When did he leave the US?  If he left the US in 2022, then he wouldn't have any filing obligations in the US for 2023, unless he has income from other sources in the US.  If you both choose to do so, you can continue to file a joint return, even if he did not have income from US sources, however, you will need to include his worldwide income from whatever source on your return.  If his ITIN is still valid, this could be done by e-filing.  If his ITIN is not valid, then you would need to print and mail your return along with the W-7 and any other required documents to

Can I still file tax with married jointly filing or married seperately filing in 2024? Yes, If you are married, your only filing options are Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately.  He must agree to filing a joint return if you filing jointly.  

 

If he no longer has an ITIN and you choose to file separate returns, then you may still be able to e-file by typing NRA in as your spouses last name.  Make sure you put a check mark in the box that says My spouse is a Non-Resident alien in the My info section. When you get to the end and try to transmit the return, ignore the e-file errors regarding your NRA spouse and select transmit your return.

 

If he still has a valid ITIN and you are filing separate, then you will just enter his info as the spouse and file that way.
