Greetings,
I am a US citizen residing and working in the US. I married overseas in Feb 2022 and we have our daughter in Dec 2022. My wife and daughter lived overseas in 2022 and most of 2023 and moved to the US in Nov 2023. My daughter received her CRBA and US passport in May 2023 while living overseas. My wife was a nonresident alien and had no SSN or ITIN until she moved to the US legally as a spouse of a US citizen. My wife did not have any income in 2022 and 2023, I paid for 100% of their expenses. Both my wife and daughter received their SSN in Dec 2023.
The first question is can I file MFJ with my daughter as a dependent for the 2023 tax year.
The second question is can I amend my 2022 tax return from MFS to MFJ with my daughter as dependent or just as MFJ without a dependent.
I greatly appreciate your help.
