Deductions & credits

You will apply the five years life time rule.  Since you were on J-visa for two years before the F-visa ( 2018-2019), you will apply three more years for exempt ( not counting days 2020-2022)  before you can start counting days to be considered as a resident. 

 

Starting from January 1st, 2023, if you stay more than 183 days in the US, you will be a US resident for tax purposes. 

 

For the year of 2019 and 2020, you are still considered as a nonresident and cannot use TurboTax to file.  I will suggest you to visit Sprintax.
