@adi47 , sorry for the wrong reply ---- whereas there is penalty for not having filed 8843s, it is advisable to be on the right side of the IRS and file these using the SSN ( because your file is now under the SSN) and send these at the same time with a note explaining the situation. You should do the same for 2018 ( i.e. include this in the same envelope as 2019 on wards ).
Is there more I can do for you ?
