Retirement tax questions

If you did not stay in the US for at least 183 days between 2018 and 2020, you are not a US resident for tax purposes.  You cannot use TurboTax and will be suggested to use Sprintax.  TurboTax is designed for both US citizens and residents for tax purposes to use.  When you start using it, it assumes you are one of them.  It does not provide the check lists to determine if you meet the criteria to file as a US citizen or resident.  As much as we want you to be one of our customers, if you file as a resident when you are not, you might need to amend your tax return later and end up owing more taxes including penalties.

 

Hope it helps.
