Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Thank you for the reply. 

 

I am have been in the states for more than five years. I have worked the same part-time job for about three years now and have filed with Turbo Tax free successfuly in the first two years. 

 

Given my situation, is there an alternative that I could file for free? The income from this part-time job is very minimal and the cost of either TurboTax Deluxe or TurboTax Self-Employed will be comparable to whatever tax refund I am hoping to receive. 

 

Is there an alternative that I can file for free with Turbo Tax? I have read elsewhere of people in a similiar situation with me filing with the IRS Free File Program delivered by TurboTax? If that works, should I file as self-employed with my 1042-S even though I am employed and paid by the University? 

 

Thank you for your time.
