@Shaddymens , not knowing your full US stay details, I can only say that generally F-1 students are exempt individuals for FIVE Calendar years -- for purposes of Substantial Presence Test.
However, for the 2024 , the days present in the USA till the date status adjustment will still count towards SPT. Thus I suspect you would be still a Resident for Tax purposes for 2024 tax year -- file a 1040 and MFJ.
For 2025 through 2028 you may still be under exempt days ( not counting days present ). Obviously this is valid if and only if you meet the conditions of the student visa and/or show a closer connection to your home country. Thus you will file as Married, each separately and on form 1040-NR ( not supported by TurboTax -- check with your school Foreign Student Office )
I will be amiss if I did not suggest that you keep good records and tread carefully to comply with work restrictions etc. if only because adjustment from H-1B to F-1 is not usual -- it is generally the other way.
Is there more can do for you ?
