If you had foreign earned income that is reported on a Form 2555.  See this TurboTax support FAQ for reporting your foreign earned income - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/income/help/do-i-need-to-report-foreign-income/01/25597

 

In the My Info section of the program where asked for resident state, scroll down to the bottom of the list in the dropdown and select Foreign or US Possession.

A tax return can be e-filed using TurboTax from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.

See this TurboTax support FAQ - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/e-file/help/can-i-e-file-with-a-foreign-address/00/25923

You complete your tax return by finishing all 3 Steps in the File section. In Step 3, to e-file your tax return, you must click on the large Orange button labeled "Transmit my returns now".

 

After completing the File section and e-filing your tax return you will receive two emails from TurboTax. The first email when your tax return was transmitted and the second email when the tax return has either been accepted or rejected.

 

To pay the TurboTax account fees you must use a US credit card with a US billing address.

If you are being stopped from efiling because you have no taxable income then simply enter $1 of "bank" interest income on the return which will now allow efiling of the return without affecting the return.
