Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes, you can include your W-2 on Form 1040. Yes, you will also need to identify that portion of your income that was earned while you were a non-resident alien.
It appears you are a dual-status alien. The U.S. income tax return you must file as a dual-status alien depends on whether you are a resident alien or a nonresident alien at the end of the tax year. Because you were a resident alien on the last day of the year, then you have the option to file Form 1040 or 1040-SR if you are a dual-status taxpayer who becomes a resident during the year and who is a U.S. resident on the last day of the tax year. Enter “Dual-Status Return” across the top of the return. Attach a statement to your return to show the income for the part of the year you are a non-resident.
Because you have to attach a Statement to your return showing the income you earned during the period you were a non-resident, you will not be able to e-file your return. You will have to mail it to the appropriate IRS office. However, to your benefit, you can use Form 1040-NR as the Statement, but be sure to enter “Dual-Status Statement” across the top.
