No. Unfortunately form 8833 is not supported by Turbo Tax. You can download the form here. Fill it out and include with your tax return. You will not be able to electronically file your return but you can print and mail your tax return with form 8833 included.

 

Meanwhile, since you are claiming a treaty-based deduction of $5K, here is how to 5K from the taxable income from your return.

  1. Go to federal>income and expenses>all income>>show more 
  2. Less Common Income> Start
  3. Miscellaneous Income,>start
  4. Other reportable income>start
  5. Next screen asks Any Other Taxable Income>yes
  6. The next screen will allow you to report the income with a brief explanation.
  7. Here you will mention  US-China treaty-based deduction and then enter -$5000. Be sure the minus sign is in front of the amount.
