Where to enter this 1042-S?

I'm a US citizen living abroad and teaching at a foreign university. On a short visit to the US I gave two lectures at a conference and was paid a small stipend. I received form 1042-S reporting the gross amount of the stipend as well as the US tax withheld. I owe no tax due to the foreign earned income exclusion and would like to get back the US withholding onthe stipend but cannot find where to report the 1042-S information. 

Help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

    You can report the 1042-S as other reportable income.

     

    1. Open your return in TurboTax 

    2. Click on Wages & Income 

    3. Scroll down to All Income 

    4. Scroll down to Less Common Income 

    5. Scroll down to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C 

    6. Click start 

    7. Scroll down to Other reportable income 

    8. Answer yes 

    9. Enter description and amount 

      

    To report the US tax paid:

    1. With your return open
    2. Click on Deductions & Credits
    3. Scroll down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid\
    4. Click on Other Income Taxes

    6. Click on Withholding not already entered on a W-2 or 1099

    To clarify, what version of Turbo Tax are you using and is it the Online Version or Software? Also are you filing a 1040 Resident or non-resident return?
