Deductions & credits

Yes, you can.  You are considered a resident in 2019 and can use the standard deduction if you don't have enough to itemize.

 

You are considered as a nonresident for five years from the year you first entered the US ( 2014-2018) Starting from January 1, 2019, if you have stayed more than 183 days, you are a US resident for tax purposes.
