All IMMIGRANT visa residents must file (based on age). 

 

There are certain business visas that may or may not require you to file taxes, but those are non-immigrant visas.

 

Once you are admitted as a permanent resident, you are liable for US taxes regardless of where you reside as long as either your permanent resident status is valid, or you are a citizen.  All LPRs and Citizens of the US *must* file US taxes, though in certain circumstances you will not have any tax liability.

Ops, so that means I'll need to submit a change request... either declare my previous income, or file separately instead of jointly, thanks for sharing that!

First of all I'm not sure it's possible to amend from MFJ to MFS, so you guys need to amend your return (MFJ) to include any changes for both of you.

But let's say that is possible for you amend to file separately, I think your husband has to also amend to file separately too. You can't have it both ways.
