Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@Dwayne 876 , having gone through your interactions/comments with @mesquitebean ,  I still have one more question ---  were you in the USA ( for any purpose ) during the years 2017 and 2018 or was 2019 your very first visit ?

Unless you have been in the USA at any time except for the 3 months in 2019, you appear to not have met the  Substantial Presence Test and therefore would be considered a Non-Resident Alien ( NRA).  Generally NRAs  are taxed ONLY on their US sourced/connect income by the USA and is reported on form 1040-NR or  1040-NR-EZ.  Neither of these forms are supported by TurboTax  -- ( you have to use  SprinTax, Tax Professional or similar services).

 

BTW--Are you still here ?  ,  When did you enter the USA with the J-1 ( Trainee? / Researcher ?  ) visa ?

 

I await your response
