If you are on a F-visa and have lived in US less than 5 years, you will not be able to use TurboTax to file your taxes.
Per IRS, if you are a F-1 visa holder, you are
considered as "exempt" meaning not counting days for five years
starting from the date of your first arrival in the United States. You are considered as a nonresident and required to file a Form 1040-NR. After
the five years period, you will start counting days by using the Substantial Presence Test to see if you qualify to be
treated as a US resident for tax purposes. If you meet the test, you will be treated as a US resident for tax purposes and will be able to file a Form 1040.

As TurboTax
does not support Form 1040NR, we have a partnership with Sprintax who offers
filing solution to our TurboTax customers. See Visit the TurboTax/Sprintax site.
