No form or statement is required regarding the income from India (as the IRS will contact you if they have any questions). Normally it doesn’t hurt to provide some basic info about such income if you’re mailing the return in anyway, but in this case we don’t want to give the Austin ITIN unit any extra documents to get confused about(!).
Line 1h is indeed where that income would go (assuming it’s wages). In TurboTax, you can enter this in “Other Earned Income.” Or (even better, if you have some more time) you could enter it in the “Foreign Earned Income and Exclusion” section (see this), and possibly exclude it from income. (A non-resident making the election can actually do this, which I was surprised to learn just now!)
Regarding his occupation, I would suggest summarizing his work in India, since you’re reporting income from that. Also, I heartily recommend double- and triple-checking your W-7 entries, as the IRS can be very picky about that form (with very lengthy delays)!
