I know this question has been asked but there is about 100 different conflicting answers. I have found TurboTax's own answer but many say it doesn't work and that other companies (TaxAct, etc.) work just fine to e-File with a Non-Resident Alien (NRA) spouse but TurboTax just errors out.
You can find what they say here under the "Married Filing Separately with a nonresident alien spouse" section: How should I file my taxes if my spouse is a nonresident alien? (intuit.com)
I'd like to e-File if possible. If I have to waste my money printing it out and sending it overseas for no reason besides Intuit's inability to fix a bug that's been in their program for a decade (whereas TaxAct, H&R Block, and others have no issue), it's annoying. I would change to another but some are more expensive and/or TurboTax imports my previous stuff. I don't even know why I have to file these stupid returns when I end up with a $0 balance each time due to FEIE.
Anyway, please let me know. Thanks.
