My spouse received the green card in Oct last year and was staying out of US majority of the times. He used to get the health insurance from insubuy/atlas whenever he traveled to the US last year. So, we had the insurance on months Jul - Oct for him.
I was wondering how to go about filing tax since the deadline is approaching.
Do I have to file jointly (spouse without income) and then pay 2.5% fee for not having him under insurance (jan to jun) OR do I file married but separate but not let him file the tax since he had zero income (if that is an option)?
Really confused. Any advice would be appreciated.
