Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@shreyasburse1709 , Namaste Shreya ji.  Your  residency start date is usually the first day that you were present in the US during the tax year under consideration.   see here -->  Residency starting and ending dates | Internal Revenue Service

So while you are resident for the whole  year, file your return using form  1040 ( supported by TurboTax ), you still have to use  itemized deduction --- Standard deduction  needs  full Calendar year presence.   So the actual day you entered the US is important.

 

Is there more I can do for you ?

 

Namaste
