I accidentally chose resident alien instead of nonresident alien. i have received my tax return, how do i amend my tax return

If you are a nonresident alien you should have filed Form 1040-NR instead of Form 1040. If you incorrectly filed Form 1040 and you should have filed Form 1040-NR instead, you will have to file an amended return, Form 1040-X, and attach your Form 1040-NR tax return. Follow the instructions under "Resident and nonresident aliens" on page 2 of the IRS Instructions for Form 1040-X.

TurboTax does not support Form 1040-NR. TurboTax has a partnership with Sprintax to prepare a Form 1040-NR federal tax return and corresponding state tax return for certain categories of nonresident aliens - international students, scholars, and non-resident foreign professionals.

If you do not meet the requirements to use Sprintax, you will have to find another way to prepare your Form 1040-NR tax return.
