In 2024 (Nonresident): Since 2023 was your first year back and you only had one previous "exempt" year in your 6-year lookback (2020), you were allowed to be an Exempt Individual in 2024 to complete the six-year look back period. Since you chose to file as a resident in 2024 you lost that exempt year.
As a result, you will file a resident return in 2025.
