I am not using form 3800 and don't know why I got the diagnostic.  Another EV credit, no critical diagnostic re 3800.   we are both using 8936.   I am going to file anyway.  Problem with Lacerte?
Yes I found it too by going back to the disposition.  I haven't done an installment for a long time.  The form I think is used to be in the contents file.  THANK YOU

The spouse, the wife is the nonresident alien.  I believe she came in with a tourist visa.  Husband is citizen for many years.  The immigration lawyer is trying to obtain her alien residency status, that is to obtain the green card.  The spouse came into the country late 2020.  Taxpayer husband needs to file his 1040.  My question is can I just file HOH for the husband with the child as dependent. I have trouble here with California.  For HOH, the husband cannot be married.   We don't mind filing joint without the SS# or ITIN.  We will just put foreign and then paper file.  Somewhere along the way, I have read the nonresident alien should also be in the US for one year before they can file joint.     Celine

If she has to be here for 12 months to file joint, the ITIN will just get the return through electronically. Currently to obtain the ITIN will take additional time as the immigration lawyer wants his return to be filed by the 20th. Somewhere on the IRS website regarding foreign spouses, I read in cases with foreign spouse coming in without any status of residency, we can file joint but she has to file her worldwide income on the return or husband can file HOH.  I forgot to document this answer and so I am throwing this question to Lacerte community.  I will need to look for what I found again and ascertain myself that HOH is ok.

This link does not help.  I am speaking of a nonqualified resident alien who just came into the country the last part of 2020 without any ID number.  Husband is currently seeking for a resident alien status for her . I also read somewhere if we file joint, she has to be in the states for 12 months.  
Got it Thanks.

Sorry, found it now under topics tab
Cannot find what you said in screen 3 miscellaneous.
Can someone over 65 wishes just to file a 1040 and not a 1040NR?

Thank you.  I just found it myself by reading CA form 3853.  I just wonder, when I just enter full year covered, how do they know?  with the foreign address?  I have other clients who live mostly abroad, returning to California a few times during the year to their home, file as California resident, have health insurance coverage  overseas, still claim have full year coverage without any 1095-A,B or C?  Should I attach form 3853 with the exemption with the CA return?
