What is the citizen/residency status of both you and your spouse? If not a U.S. citizen or a resident alien then not only do you not get the standard deduction, you also can't use any version of the TurboTax software to complete your tax return. A non-resident must file the 1040-NR which is not included in TurboTax. But there is another online service you can use at www.sprintax.com
