The IRS will not make a direct deposit to a foreign bank account.  If you do not have a U.S. based bank account, the IRS will only mail a check to the address you use on your tax return.

 

It is not clear from your post whether you can use TurboTax or if you should be using its partner, sprintax.

 

 

If you are a non-resident alien, your return must be filed on Form 1040NR, which cannot be prepared using TurboTax.  You can use TT’s partner, sprintax:
