Hi @DaveF1006 and @DavidD66 ,
I wanted to follow up on questions. Could you please help me understand if the procedure that I described (making a first year choice and treating a nonresident spouse as resident) is correct.
Also, if we should file form 4868 with an estimated balance due as nonresident aliens for the whole year (since if we were to file now both of us would have to file form 1040NR as a whole year nonresidents)? Or, since we plan to make these two selections to become full-year residents for 2023 after passing substantial presence test in 2024, do we need to estimate balance due based on filing jointly and being full year residents?
Thank you!
