If you have F1 visa, you don't exist in the US... basically you are invisible. You don't accumulate physical presence in the US for the first 5 years, provided you stay within the requirements of the visa.  For example, if I come and study and don't violate the visa requirement, I am invisible. On the other hand, if I start working in the U.S. in violation of the visa status, I am technically not covered under the visa and I should accumulate physical presence.

As you stated, in 2020 you should be able to file 1040, so the question is only for 2019. See if there is a difference in tax due or refund before you dig more.
