Hello. I arrived to US for first time as green card holder last year august 1st 2022. Now, I received a 1042 s with income tax code 12 (royalties from YouTube) with a amount they win held me last year prior to arrived to the country. Where should I add this information in my taxes? I don’t find the option here. Thanks

As you received your green card during the year 2022, you are a dual-status alien for tax year 2022.
For the part of the year you are a nonresident alien, you are taxed on income from U.S. sources only.
For the part of the year you are a U.S. resident alien, you are taxed on income from all sources. Income from sources outside the United States is taxable if you receive it while you are a resident alien.
As you are a resident alien at the end of the year, you can use form 1040 to report your worldwide income during the period you are a resident alien. You have to write "Dual-Status return" across the top of the return. You have to print out your return and mail it as you cannot e-file.
For the income earned before becoming a resident alien, you have to report it on form 1040-NR. Form 1040-NR is not supported by TurboTax and you can use the services of our partner Sprintax. You will attach form 1040-NR to your form 1040, but you must also write "Dual-status return" across the top of form 1040-NR.
Please read this IRS document for more information.

So in this case I am not a dual status resident? Because I arrived the country as green card holder and the 1042 s was issued in my time in my country of birth (Salvador) thanks
