How do i file a tax return for 2017? I am a non resident and live in South Africa.

You will file tax form 1040 to report this income.

Because the IRS no longer accepts prior year returns for e-file, you will need to prepare, print and mail your tax returns to the IRS and a state, if applicable.

You will need to use a TurboTax CD/Download product because the on-line products only support 2018 filings.
