Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi! I have a nonprofit(cap exempt) H1B starting May 17, 2019 and I am from India. Can I file taxes on 1040 form as a Resident and claim the standard deduction of 12,200$ for my taxes. I read that when you are dual status, you can't claim standard deduction but have to do itemized deductions. Please let me know!

 

Thanks a lot in advance
