How to claim the 8805 withholding payment back with resident tax retrurn?

My client became a resident taxpayer in 2019 (from B1/B2 to H1B). She had K-1 income from a partnership. The partnership didn’t know she became a resident taxpayer this year and still withhold tax from her and therefore generate form 8805. 

How can she claim the withholding payment back while she using 1040 tax form? What I know was Form 8805 can only be linked with 1040NR.

Was your client a dual-status resident or full-year resident alien?

Try Screen 20.1, Line 15, and use Code O for the withholding, then attach the F.8805 on Screen 4.4 by linking it to Form 1040 - Other.
