1042S exemption code 15 - Got Greencard in November 2021

Hi everyone,

I am filing as married jointly for my wife and I. I work fulltime and my wife is a graduate student that is a on scholarship/fellowship. I have a W2 and my wife has a 1042-S.

I was always a resident because I have been here for 4 years now while my wife was always a non-resident because shes on a student visa. For 2020 taxes we did our taxes H&R block and we had to write a letter to allow my wife to be treated as a resident for tax purposes.

We both got our Greencard in November 2021. She told her university by january about the greencard to change her status. For taxes in 2021; how do I include her 1042-S in turbotax? It is exemption code 15.
