Here's my situation. I'm active duty home of record Maryland stationed in Maryland. I have only ever filed Maryland state taxes. I was married 2024 to my wife who is a travelling nurse. She's a resident of North Dakota. She's lived with me in Maryland basically all of 2024 except for two months working in Rhode Island. For her job she kept her home base as North Dakota (mailing address, driver's license, car registration, etc) because then she doesn't get her stipends taxed or something to that effect. She received two w-2's for the contract work in Rhode Island and contract work in Maryland. I have the desktop version and we want to file federal jointly. What options do I have for filing for the three different states? I thought I would file myself and her jointly for Maryland but wouldn't she be a non-resident since I'm filing her as a resident of North Dakota?
