Hello Robert, as per Substantial Presence Test Substantial Presence Test | Internal Revenue Service (irs.gov), I became a Resident Alien in June 2023. Can I choose to file 2023 taxes as a Resident Alien for the whole year or should I file as dual-status alien?

To clarify, were you a non-resident in the US prior to coming or did you reside in a foreign country prior to arriving in the US?
