Hi, I am currently under H1B status and meet the Substantial Presence Test. Thus, I believe I am considered as a Resident. Can I use TurboTax to file for 2018?

Yes, TurboTax can help you file! You are considered as a resident for tax purposes since you meet the Substantial Presence Test. You can use TurboTax to file and you do not have to do anything special to advise the IRS. The IRS does not ask for information about your visa or immigration status, so TurboTax does not need to know you have an H1B visa.
