You may be filing the wrong tax return if you or your wife &nbsp;are exchange visitors for the year. If you are considered a nonresident of the US, you should file a 1040-NR which TurboTax does not support.&nbsp; If you need to prepare a 1040-NR, you can use&nbsp;<A href="https://www.sprintax.com/non-resident-alien-tax-1040nr-turbotax.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sprintax</A>&nbsp;which is a partner of TurboTax.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>This may be the reason for the discrepancy in the tax payment amount.</P> Wed, 28 Feb 2024 19:11:01 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/re-how-to-file-taxes-for-au-pairs/01/3225946#M1191106 DaveF1006 2024-02-28T19:11:01Z
