In TurboTax Desktop, go to the Personal Information section.

Ensure your Province of Residence on December 31, 2025, is selected.

Look for the question, "Did you become a resident/leave Canada in 2025?" Ensure this is unchecked or set to "No" if you lived here all year.

Ensure the box for "Non-resident" is NOT checked.

Let me know how it goes!
