@dtana2021 , sorry for the delay in responding.
1. By my count the number of days you were present ( 24th July 2021 -- first full day after entry) till the last day of the year 12/31/2021 , you did not pass the Substantial Presence Test ( 183 days counting all days present in 2021 + 1/3rd. the days present in 2020 + 1/6th. days present in 2019 ) -- you had 161 days . Thus you would have been a Non Resident Alien. Therefore you should have filed your return on form 1040-NR. This is not supported by TurboTax
2. As a remedy you have two paths:
(a) Once the IRS send you your refund ( i.e. the processing is finished ), you can an amended federal return -- prepare a new federal return on form 1040-NR , ( you can do this by hand by downloading a 1040-NR from the IRS website , it is a fillable pdf) , then print , sign / date , write across the top "Replacing original form 1040", attach a copy of the original filed/ processed form 1040. Attach a check to make the difference between old return and the new return made out to the IRS. Also include a note explaining that you using the wrong form in error.
(b) If IRS send you the full refund, including the Economic stimulus ( the refundable credit ), then send them a request, that you would like to treated as a Resident for Tax purposes for the year 2021 and include that : 1. ,You were not a resident in 2020; 2. that you were present at least 31 days in 2021, that you were present at least 75% of the days in the test period 07/23/202 through 12/31/2021. and 3. that you would meet the SPT in 2022. This would allow IRS to retroactively treat you as a resident for tax purposes for 2021 and therefore the credit disbursement would be valid / legal. Note that this path #(b) while logical , is called out by the IRS only concurrently with the filing and I would expect that they would allow a retrospective / curative filing.
Does all this make sense ?
Is there more I can do for you ?
