According to the IRS, you will not be an exempt individual as a student if you have been exempt as a teacher, trainee, student, Exchange Visitor, or Cultural Exchange Visitor on an "F, " "J, " "M, " or "Q " visa for any part of more than 5 calendar years.
If you arrived in 2016 and resided in the US for the entire 2021 tax year, you are a resident alien that has complied with the substantial presence test. Your exempt years were from 2016-2020.
Keep in mind, the above replies in this thread were made in 2020. The year 2021 is a brand new year.
