DC Tax Return

I was in District of Columbia, USA from October 2022 till October 2023 on J1 Visa. I have moved back to India. Being on J1 Visa, I will be filing federal return as non resident (1040-NR) for 2023. Which tax return I have to file for DC (Resident or Non resident).

The confusion is because

as per rules from DC tax website, I have to file as resident (stayed in DC for more than 183 days in 2023). But logically if filing federal return as Non resident, then DC return should also be filed as Non resident.

Just for the information, I filed Non resident return for 2022 (Both Federal and DC state-less than 183 days)
