1-Turbotax does not support form 1042s directly, but you can enter the income based on the income code.
Because you are a resident alien and you have received a form 1042S where you report the income depends on the income code and why the form was generated. See page 18 for a description of income code.IRS Instructions Form 1042-S.
This income can be entered as miscellaneous income. When you sign into your TurboTax account you can follow the steps below.
- Select the "Federal" tab in the black navigation bar on the left
- Select "Income & Expenses"
- Select "Add more income" button if necessary
- Scroll and click "See the list of all income"
- Scroll to "Less Common Income" and select "show more"
- Select "Miscellaneous Income"
- Scroll and select "Other Reportable Income"
- Click "yes" then enter the description and amount (this will show up on line 21, Form 1040)
2-The entry steps you have in your question is correct. Enter the federal and/or state withholding here:
- Deductions and credits/Other income taxes/Yes/Other income taxes paid in 2017/Withholding not already entered on a W2 or 1099
3-The results should be correct following the steps above.
You should file your return by mail so that you can attach your Form 1042-S to the return.
