What part of my earning is taxable if I am filing as Non resident for 2020 tax year

I was working in US on H1B visa. I left US on Jan 16-2020 and continued to work for the same employer till April 2020 from outside US (remotely). I couldn't return back to US due to pandemic. Though I was in US payroll till APRIL 2020, I was physically present in US 16 days only. So, what part of my income is taxable ? only 16 days of earning ? or whole of my earning till APRIL 2020 with US employer?

Note: I am assuming I have to file 1040NR because I was not present at least 31 days in the US.

Yes, you will need to file a 1040NR return. Turbo Tax does not file this return but our trusted affiliate sprintax handles 1040NR returns.
