State tax filing

Form 1099-DIV itself does not ask for any address information.  If you lived in foreign country, you are allowed to e file with the foreign address.  However, 

  • IRS regulations require a U.S. bank account to receive your tax refund, and you'll need a U.S. bank account (or credit/debit card with a U.S. billing address) if paying additional federal taxes owed.

Since you mentioned the Form 1099-DIV, if you pay taxes on your foreign dividends to both foreign and US government, you may take a foreign tax credit on Form 1116.  

 

Here are the steps: 

 

In TurboTax online,

  • Open up your TurboTax account and select Pick up where you left off
  • At the right upper corner, in the search box, type in "foreign tax credit" and Enter
  • Select Jump to foreign tax credit
  • Follow prompts
