1. For 2024, you should file as non-NYC and your wife as NYC resident. It should not raise any red flags; even if it did, your explanation of your situation supports the filing. It is never "safer" to report knowingly wrong in an attempt to avoid the audit.
2. You will be able to e-file the joint New York return, even with the NYC residency being different.
