I assume you entered the US some time in 2013.

If so, you can file a 1040 resident return with TurboTax. As a resident you no longer need to file Form 8843. You just need to file a federal 1040 and state (if your state has an income tax).

Even If I don't have any income in 2018?

Sorry, missed that! If you have no income, you do not need to file a return. And you do not need to file Form 8843.
