Deductions & credits

Yes, you are correct that you would need to file for an individual taxpayer identification number (ITN) by filing Form W-7, and file a 1040-NR to get a refund of the taxes withheld. 

 

Whether you would get all of the withholding refunded depends on the total amount of US income.

 

TurboTax doesn't handle Form 1040-NR, but you can use Sprintax. Follow this link for more about that.
