I am a International student on F1 from India, I received a 1098-T and 1042-S (income code 16) form. entering my 1042-s amount in credits& deductions section correct?

I have been in the US for 4 years. After researching I had entered my box 10 amount from 1042-s into the Withholding Not Already entered on W-2 or 1099 in the Deductions and Credits section. Is that the right way to get my refund for 1042-s?

Since you are an F1 student in the US less than 5 years, you will be filing a nonresident return. To do so, we invite you to use our partner service of Sprintax at the following link: Visit the TurboTax/Sprintax site

TurboTax cannot prepare the 1040NR form that you need. You can choose to download the forms you need from the IRS website and mail it in, but the service we partner with for the nonresident return is Sprintax.
