If you have not received any source of income you’ll need to file Form 8843.
If you have received income in the last calendar year then you will need to file Form 8843 and most likely Form 1040NR-EZ.
For non-citizen and international students there are no pros and cons filing single or married. Since you cannot claim for
Earned income credit
Child tax credit
Child and dependent care credit
Student loan interest deduction
Elderly and disabled credit
All deductions and credits of every kind relating to education, such as the Hope and Lifetime Learning Credits, student loan interest deduction and tuition and fees deduction
So you can choose either.
