My client entered the US on 02/24/19.
I'm submitting a W-7 and tax return to apply for a ITIN.
Is she considered a resident for tax filing purposes?
Thanks,
Michael D.

Greencard? What type of visa? No legal documentation?
Married? If so, does the spouse move to US too? Greencard? What type of visa? No legal documentation?

The client doesn't have a green card.
She has a B1 visa.
She's single
She has a Peruvian passport.

My assistant "Mr Google" states:
Visitors carrying a US B1/B2 Visa can enter the United States for a maximum of 180 days Per Entry. All visits are strictly limited to business or tourism, so you CANNOT seek paid work or employment.Feb 10, 2020

Assuming your client was in the US that entire time, it looks like your client was a Resident by the end of the year.
Her Residency Starting Date would probably be 2/24/19.
That means you file a 1040, but as a "Dual Status" return.
