What do I do if I don't have US phone number?

Although the current version of Turbo Tax allows for foreign mailing addresses, you cannot use an international phone number to 1) verify your identify/retrieve your password, 2) enter as part of your personal information when filing your taxes.

All you can do is provide a US phone number for someone who can reach you.

if it was just personal info for the return you could make up a phone number but that won't work if you have to verify your identity.

This seems like a rather important oversight for TurboTax -- particularly for US citizens living abroad.  If the forms and our personal profile allows for non-US addresses, then why wouldn't a non-US phone number also be included?
