Based on your response and because your exempt period ended in 2023, you were a resident for tax purposes for the whole year of 2024 -- vacations and small absences do not negate " was here for the whole calendar year).
Thus you file form 1040 for the whole year using standard deduction .
Where in Deutschland are you from / I lived in Pech bei Bonn for four year during the eighties. The foreign minister Gensha used to live in the same place , except he was at the top of the hill and I was in lower part.
Is there more I can do for you ?
