This article says that, although ID is requested, it is not mandatory except in some states.
If you are a foreign national living in the US (pass the substantial presence test) and you live in a state where ID is required, then you need to get ID, or file by mail. If you are living in a state where ID is not required, see if you can leave that page blank.
If you are living overseas, and you are not a US person for tax purposes (citizen or green card holder), or if you do not pass the substantial presence test for 2023, then you file a 1040-NR, not a regular 1040, and turbotax can't prepare a 1040-NR. You may be using the wrong software.
@Tax Inquisitive Goyal ji, Namaste.
Agreeing with points and refs provided by my colleague @Opus 17 , I am just wondering:
(a) are a US person ( citizen/GreenCard/ Resident for Tax purposes ) -- because if not, you would need to file a return on form 1040-NR ( this is not supported by TurboTax -- you can use SprinTax or help from your school foreign students office or tax professional ). As you can see without more info on your status we don't know how to help you.
(b) If you are here on work visa or otherwise , have SSN and have met the Substantial Presence Test ( SPT ), then you use the form 1040 for filing your return. To be able to file this electronically ( e-File ) you need some sort of ID ( your driver's license is the most common one used ).
Please tell us more so we can help you file your return.
