Question

With F1 visa, I was in a school in the first half of the year, I have a W-2 for that. But, now I am in another school (in another state), I have 1042-S form, not W-2.

I couldn't find any option to file tax for the second school in TurboTax. How do I do that without having W-2?

Are you an F1 student?  When did you arrive in the US on an F1 visa?  Thank you!

This is my third year in the US. It's F1.  I switched school last year. I have W2 from my previous school and1042-S from the new school (it's in another state).  I couldn't find any option to file tax with 1042-S in TurboTax. Thanks.

If you have been in the US on an F1 student visa for less than 5 years or part years, you are a US nonresident and cannot use TurboTax.

 

If you previously filed a US resident return, you will need to amend your prior year returns.

 

TurboTax is only for US citizens and US residents and does not handle nonresident returns.

 

However we have a partnership with Sprintax offering a nonresident tax filing solution to our TurboTax customers.  

Visit the TurboTax/Sprintax site for more info or to get started.
