Well, I'm here. I listed it as a season finale because The Futon Critic 
doesn't have any info on season 4, yay or nay.

Here's a story from Syfy from yesterday:

Resident Alien Creator Explains the [Spoiler] Threat and Teases More 
Alan Roles

https://www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/resident-alien-showrunner-teases-more-roles-for-alan-tudyk

At one point it says "Max (Judah Prehn) and Sahar (Gracelyn Awad Rinke) 
have uncovered the ruse as he can see the true forms of aliens, which 
means trouble for the town and the two kids in Season 4," suggesting 
there will be a season 4.

But at another point the article says "As part of our exclusive 
postmortem with Resident Alien showrunner Chris Sheridan, SYFY WIRE 
asked if this means audiences should look forward to yet another 
character for Alan Tudyk to embody if the show gets another pickup? And 
the answer is, 'Yes!'," meaning that season 4 hasn't been ordered yet.

So I think not yet, but strongly possible is the answer.
