I need to file as a resident alien but do not have a US address since I left the US in Dec 2018. Can I still use TurboTax?

I was on a F1 visa but graduated in Dec 2018. I filed as a resident alien last year because I had been in the US for more than 5 years. I have tried using the TurboTax free online program, but it doesn't allow me to register without a US address. What are my options for filing? Can I still use TurboTax or should I use something else?

If you do not have a US address for registering your return, you will need to locate a different tax preparation service.  I am sorry we were unable to assist you.

Thanks for the quick response! Must the address be my current residential address, which is not in the US? Would it be possible for me to use a family friend’s US address (with their permission)- which would be the address I would want US correspondence to go to? Thanks again for your help.
