In TurboTax, you do not have to indicate this in the Personal Info section- though you most likely saw the option for your spouse.  

 

For you in 2025, you are a Dual-status individual for tax purposes.  This means you report and pay tax all income for the time you are a U.S. resident.  For the time you were a nonresident, you would only need to report income from U.S. sources.  You would need to write "Dual-Status Return" so you would need to print and mail your return.  You must also attach a statement to your return to show the income for the part of the year you are a nonresident (which can be a 1040NR with "Dual-Status Statement" on the return.)

 

See Taxation of dual-status individuals.

@safperbox . agreeing with my colleague @MaryK4  , for her quite complete reply to your post.  However, I would like to add just the following:

(a)  If you were legally present in the USA during 2025 prior to the adjustment of status, then your start of residency may be earlier .  However, if you were not present  or was on "exemption status", then your admission date is the date  for start of residency.  See -->  Residency starting and ending dates | Internal Revenue Service

(b) If your start of residency is not the first day of the calendar year ( Jan 1st ) then  you cannot use standard deduction, which requires  a full calendar year of presence.

(c) From the date of residency start date  you come under the FBAR  ( form 114 at www.FinCen.gov) and FATCA ( form 8938 along with your return ).  See -->  Comparison of Form 8938 and FBAR requirements | Internal Revenue Service

 

Is there more one of us can do for you ?
