Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Curious why you wouldn't want the accounting firm to handle both the US and Indian tax filings?  I don't find Turbo Tax to be user friendly when calculating the foreign earned income exclusion and foreign tax credit.

 

That said, agree with everything above that you can continue filing MFJ, claiming dependents etc.  Your spouse's earnings are eligible for exclusion once she meets either the physical presence test (330 days/365 day period.  This is a rolling 12 month period.  Assume she met this by 10/15/24) or bona fide residence being their a full calendar year.  You are only eligible to exclude income for the qualifying days in India.
