TurboTax does not support non-resident alien.  Contact our partner Sprintax to file as non-resident alien.

If you are a nonresident alein you cannot use TurboTax.  You will need to file IRS Form 1040-NR and TurboTax does not support this form.

 

See this TurboTax support FAQ for Form 1040-NR - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-forms/turbotax-handle-form-1040-nr-n...

Is there any reason you are trying to file Form 1040? 

Are you married to a resident and attempting to file a Married Filing Joint Return 1040?
