I reported fellowship payments which Turbotax indicated as taxable but staff from payroll say for resident alien, these payments are non-reportable and non-taxable. Help

Further research online (universities websites) indicate that it depends on whether the fellowship payment is qualified or non-qualified. My monthly pay slip indicates "Fellowship Qual non-" which I assume ends with tax. I'm so confused on the issue of postdoc fellowship payments for resident aliens and how to report correctly. I would love clarification on this
