It sounds like you should file a 1040.
Please see Resident and nonresident aliens
You're considered a resident alien for a calendar year if you meet the green card test or the substantial presence test for the year.
Green card test
- You're considered to have met the green card test, and are therefore a resident alien,
- if at any time during the calendar year you are a lawful permanent resident of the United States according to the immigration laws,
- and this status hasn't been revoked or administratively or judicially determined to have been abandoned.
Substantial presence test
You satisfy the substantial presence test, and are therefore treated as a resident alien for a calendar year, if you have been physically present in the United States on at least:
- 31 days during the current year, and
- 183 days during the 3-year period that includes the current year and the 2 years immediately preceding the current year. To satisfy the 183-day requirement, count:
- All of the days you were present in the current year,
- One-third of the days you were present in the first year before the current year, and
- One-sixth of the days you were present in the second year before the current year.
