I'm a resident alien and my spouse is a dual-status alien for the 2024 tax year; she was a non-resident for the first part of the year, but a resident for the latter part. We want to be treated as residents for the entire tax year in the joint return. I checked the boxes to mention that she is a "non-resident alien or dual-status alien" but the statement prepared as an attachment by Turbotax (when viewed through the print center), incorrectly mentions that my spouse "was a nonresident alien as of the last day of the tax year ended 12/31/2024", which is not true.
This seems like a bug in TurboTax where it asks "non-resident alien or dual-status alien" but always prepares the statement assuming the spouse is a non-resident alien at the end of the year.
Am I missing some option to clarify that my spouse is a dual-status alien? If not, do I have any option to e-file by amending the statement, or is my only option to paper file?
