"I came to USA on 29th June 2016"

What is your citizenship status?   Are you a US citizen or "resident alien for tax purposes?"  Or a "non-resident alien for tax purpose?"  Are you here on a visa--if so, which one?   Were you previously in the USA prior to June 29?

Before June 29 I was working in India, and I am citizen of India, working here on L1, and this is the first time I am working in USA.

I'll ask someone familiar with international filing to help you determine if you can use TurboTax or not, but I'm not sure when they will get their message.

@ bine22 Are you able to assist this filer on an L1 visa.  Thanks!

If you cam one June 29th 2016 and assuming you didn't leave the US in between (for vacation etc.), you would be a dual status alien. Unless you are married, that is your only option of filing.

Turbotax does not support dual status returns.

You can file a health coverage exemption with that return (https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i8965/ch01.html), but again, not with Turbotax. 

Have a look at publication 519:  https://www.irs.gov/publications/p519/

Thanks, bine22.

I am married, and I came with my wife and daughter on 29th June, and didn't leave US for a single day after that.
