My husband came to visit right before the pandemic hit and we decided to get married earlier than originally planned and apply to adjust status.  He had to quit his work back home and still has a bunch of things that he left unfinished. Just recently, he got some things in order, including pay he was owed and arranged to have it sent to us. Since he didn't receive his final pay until long after we got married, would that be counted as income on our 2020 tax return? Or if it's money that was due to him for work done before he moved here and we got married is it considered something else?
