Hey guys
This is the first time for me to fill the tax by myself in turbo tax. I have a few questions and hope some anyone can help. I have around 200 GBP interests from Bank A with 4 accounts and 0 GBP interests with bank B and UK employer pension plan, which is operated by scottish widow. I asked the online helper, but it seems that they are not quite sure about some details.
1. In terms of income, do I need to add one 1099int myself for bank A with interests 200 GBP (no need to mention 4 accounts separatedly)? In terms of GBPUSD currency, can I use 2023 average currency to calculate it as USD? In terms of source, can I just copy and paste the web link in it?
2. In terms of income, I assume I do not need to add bank B because no income?
3. In terms of foreign asset, it asks me to fill in amount attributable to foreign financial account. I assume I fill in 200 GBP again here? (so in total fill in it twice). They asked me where reported and give me one example Schedule B, Line 1. should I fill in shcedule b, line 1 in the schedule and line? I filled in 1099 int in Q1, but I do not know line it is. So, I do feel confuse for it. I attached the pic here. Please let me know whether they are correct
4. In temrs of UK bank address, can I fill in the opening branch address or need headquarter?
5. If the spouse doesnt have SSN, do I have to send the pension by mail and e-file solution?
Sorry for lots of technical questions

You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
1. Yes, you can combine the four accounts and use the average conversion rate for the year.
2. With zero income you can omit this account from the return.
3. You are correct - Schedule B, Line 1
4. Use the return address from any statements that you have received.
5. Yes, unfortunately. If your spouse has no social security number you must file by mail.
The only other thing I want to remind you of is the FBAR. You are required to file a separate form every year reporting the value of any foreign financial accounts that you have if their balance is over $10,000. Here are the rules on the FBAR.
