In the TurboTax program, first report your full income. Then you
can enter the treaty exempt amount as negative income under "less
common income". You will have to file a Form 8833 to claim an
exception. As TurboTax does not support Form 8833, you cannot e-file.
Instead, you may use Turbotax to prepare your return, but need to print
out your tax forms and mail the returns along with the form 8833.
