As a J1 visa holder, you are a nonresident alien and have to file form 1040NR.
TurboTax doesn't support Form 1040NR: U.S. Nonresident Alien Income Tax Return, but we have a partnership with Sprintax offering a nonresident tax filing solution to our TurboTax customers.
You made reference to the Substantial presence test, but as a J visa holder, you are an exempt individual and the test does not apply to you.
