Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I was filing for 2021 but at the end it gave a message by saying you are not eligible for e-filing and reason is state of residence is a foreign country. Please help.

TurboTax requires you to have a US address to register and efile your tax return.

I can provide an US address where I used to live or my friends address. Where I suppose to change that one as currently I am staying in Toronto, Canada.
