Hi, I came to the States in 2015. i got my H1B in Oct 2018. I filed my 2019 taxes using Turbo Tax. Did i do the correct thing here ? OR i need to file an amended tax return ?

I assume you probably were on F-1 visa before receiving the H-1B visa approval in 2018. Once you got your H-1B, if you stayed more than 183 days or met the Substantial Presence Test in both 2019 and 2020, you are considered as a resident for tax purposes. You can use TurboTax to file.

That is correct, i was on F1 visa. Sorry for not mentioning that in the original question.
After getting my H1B visa, i did stay more than 183 days in 2019 & more than 183 days in 2020.
i did my 2019 taxes using Turbo Tax & now will also do my 2020 taxes using TurboTax.
Appreciate you taking time & answering my question.
Thank You 🙂
