turbotax wants me to get my 2020 stimulus check, but I was not a resident for tax purposes and did not qualify then. There is no place to indicate this in the system and I can't get to someone without paying extra, but I shouldn't have to because it's their error, not mine. I'd appreciate any help you can give me!
If you're using Online Deluxe (as is indicated underneath your question), there is no extra fee to talk to TurboTax Support. But there may be a bigger problem.
You said you are a "not a resident for tax purposes." Does that mean you were a non-resident alien in 2020 now trying to prepare a 2020 return? If so, you cannot use TurboTax. TurboTax can only prepare returns for US citizens and resident aliens for tax purposes. TurboTax cannot prepare Form 1040NR for non-resident aliens, but has an affiliate partner that can.
If you are not a US citizen, when did you first come to the USA and how long have you been here?
What visa are you under?
Are you married?
If necessary, I can ask someone familiar with international filing to assist you.
