I am a US Green card holder currently working in INDIA for the past 2 years. Need to file my US Taxes. Does Turbotax have software to support this filing online?

Yes, TurboTax does have the programs available to support your filing.  As a green card holder, you are treated as a US citizen or resident and required to report worldwide income.  As long as you have internet that allows you to file online, you can use TurboTax anywhere in the world.  www.turbotax.com Please note that if you have a tax refund, that refund can only be directly deposited into a US bank located in the US.  Otherwise, the refund can only be mailed to you as a check to the address ( including foreign address) entered on your tax return.

To enter a foreign earned income in TurboTax online program, here are the steps:

1. After sign into your account, select Take me to my return 

2.  At the right upper corner, in the search box, type in foreign income and Enter 

3.  Select Jump to foreign income 

4.  Next screen, Did You Make Any Money Outside the United States? answer Yes 

5 On screen, What Form(s) Was Foreign Income Reported On? make your selection and continue to proceed

Per IRS, if you lived outside the United States for at least 330 days during 12 consecutive months, you might be able to exclude your foreign income from your taxes.  For more information, see  Foreign income and exclusion and Extension.  For the tax year of 2017, the maximum foreign earned income exclusion amount is $102,100.
