As an international student, I hold a J1 visa and commenced my contract at Stanford University in September 2021, marking my initial employment in the USA. Up until August 2023, I qualified for tax exemption under the Italy-US tax treaty, for which I submitted a Form 8233, "Exemption From Withholding on Compensation for Independent (and Certain Dependent) Personal Services of a Nonresident Alien Individual."
Consequently, I received a Form1042-S ("Foreign person US source income subject to withholding") covering the period from January to September 2023. The form specifies my tax rate as 0%, with exemption code 3a as 04 and exemption code 4a as 16.
In previous years, I successfully utilized Springtax for my tax filings, which included the inclusion of my 1042-S form. However, this year I encountered an issue: Springtax is recommending that I use TurboTax due to my classification as a resident tax alien.
It appears that TurboTax does not support the inclusion of the 1042-S form. Consequently, I am seeking guidance on how to proceed with submitting my 1042-S form using TurboTax, or if there is an alternative method to ensure the accurate filing of my taxes.
