Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@uyomide , as I understand your post :

(a) You entered with F-1  in  2019 --- thus your exempt period  finished  12/31/2023

(b)  So you started counting days present  from 01/01/2024 and passed SPT end of June 2024.

(c)   Per  this ref -->  Residency starting and ending dates | Internal Revenue Service

 "If you meet the substantial presence test for a calendar year, your residency starting date is generally the first day you are present in the United States during that calendar year."

 

Thus you are a resident for Tax purposes  for the whole of 2024.  And because your presence  included the full calendar  year, you are able to use Standard deduction.  You file on form 1040 and be taxed on world income.

I do not understand  your statement about withholding --- your W-2  covers all the wages  paid to you  during the year.  OR are you talking about FICA taxes.  While working under H-1B and not EAD, you are subject  to FICA taxes.

 

Is there more I can do for you ?
