You do not use the time you were on F-1 Visa to count towards Substantial Presence Test.
What date did you switch to H1B?
According to the IRS:
"Do not count days for which you are an exempt individual. The term "exempt individual" does not refer to someone exempt from U.S. tax, but to anyone in the following categories:
An individual temporarily present in the U.S. as a foreign government-related individual under an “A” or “G” visa, other than individuals holding “A-3” or “G-5” class visas. A teacher or trainee temporarily present in the U.S. under a "J" or "Q" visa, who substantially complies with the requirements of the visa. A student temporarily present in the U.S. under an "F," "J," "M," or "Q" visa, who substantially complies with the requirements of the visa. A professional athlete temporarily in the U.S. to compete in a charitable sports event."

No one else can see your tax return. We do not know who Wanda is---is she your spouse? A dependent? Click her name in MY INFO and see if you missed entering something.

Earnings are the taxable distribution plus recapture of any previous amounts claimed. NY states you must file a nonresident return if:
You are a nonresident with New York source income and your New York adjusted gross income Federal amount column (Form IT-203, line 31) exceeds your New York standard deduction.
Your earnings may be less than the standard deduction so you have no taxable income.
I was glad to see 2024 update to NY 529 plan. It is better and page 86 states:
B. Penalties and Fees: I understand and agree that if I make a Federal Nonqualified Withdrawal, I may be subject to the Federal Penalty on the earnings portion of that withdrawal and that the Federal Penalty will be payable in addition to, and along with, my federal income tax for the year of the Federal Nonqualified Withdrawal. I understand and agree that if I make a New York Nonqualified Withdrawal, I may be subject to the recapture of any New York State tax benefits that had accrued on contributions to my Account. In addition, I understand and agree that I may be subject to other fees, charges, or penalties in the future, as described in the Disclosure Booklet.
I understand that a full or partial rollover of my Account to a non-New York Qualified Tuition Program or a full or partial rollover of my Account to a Qualified ABLE Program that does not meet the requirements of an ABLE Rollover Distribution would be subject to New York State taxes on earnings as well as the recapture of all previous New York State tax deductions taken for contributions to the Account.

Create a substitute 1099-INT for the 1099-OID form. Then it flows through to the schedule B as though it were programmed that way.

I reviewed your file and everything was reported correctly. If you didn't report the capital gains for the sale this year, you would have received a refund but almost $80K in capital gains does make a difference.
I checked your foreign tax credit entry and you correctly reported the gross amount of the sale and the foreign taxes paid. You received a foreign tax credit for more that $8K, and you were able to claim all of this credit on your federal tax return.
The difference between your tax owed between the federal and state return is the fact the Foreign Tax Credit does reduce tax liability on the federal return only and not the state. Just remember, you owe taxes this year primarily because of your condo sale in the Philippines.

Greetings in the new Tax Filing Season: Does Turbo Tax store the calculations for how it comes up with ** Capital loss carryover from 2023 and prior years i.e. ** What items are used for "All capital losses used in 2024" 2023 etc ** What types of income can the Capital Losses offset ? Many thanks, Tom in Carolina

From the response, I have decided that the need for drivers license or real ID is not an IRS requirement but one that TurboTax adds. I'll skip it. Thank you.

Changing to a different app probably won't help because the method to import tax documents would be the Same
