This is my first year filing as a resident alien and I don't understand why TurboTax is adding $1400 equivalent to the third stimulus check to my tax return.

Am I eligible to get this amount? Otherwise, how can I let TurboTax not consider this amount?

As a resident alien for tax year 2021, you are entitled to the third stimulus of $1,400. If you did not get it in 2021, you are eligible to receive it as the Recovery Rebate credit when you file your tax return.
