What are the benefits, if any, of filing as a dual-status alien?
You may get to claim wife and children as dependents. Otherwise, there are normally NO benefits.
The benefit is that you don't have to include your foreign income for the period during which you did not live in the US.
If you had a significant amount of foreign income that was not taxed or taxed at a low rate, it might be good to avoid US tax.
