Tax filing H-1B and H4 visa holders (married couple)

Hi! I am an H-1B visa holder working in Hawaii, USA. I have a spouse with an H4 visa who is completely dependent on me (without any income). We married in 2022. We have been here since May 2024. We will not plan to leave the USA till the end of 2024. So, we will be more than 183 days in the USA in 2024. As I understand, it means that we are resident aliens for tax purposes. And we can file taxes jointly. Do I understand right? I quit my job in Russia on May 14 and moved to the US, where I was hired on May 20. Do I have to declare the income I earned in my previous position in Russia before moving to the US? I haven't had any other income in Russia.
