Can I file a F-1 student (No social security number) as my dependent if I pay for his tuition in 2020?

Is this student related to you?  Live in your home?

Yes,he is my younger brother and live with me in 2020. He is qualify as a dependent,but the only issue is that he is an international student and he does not social security number at all. When I file tax, turbo tax asks me to fill out his social security number.
