When SS mistakenly issued a form SSA-1042S instead of SSA-1099 for a green card holder while I am visiting overseas where that country has a tax treaty and SS does not have enough time to correct it before April 15th, can I report on the SSA-1099 in TurboTax and make a tax payment? Previously, I was told by the CPA that as long as I have a green card, I should claim US Tax as I am residing in the USA, also. As an additional question, For the Turbotax help they are offering with the expert support with some fee can help this kind of situation also?

Yes, you may report the income as follows as if you received a SSA 1099.

1. Go to income.
2. Go to Retirement Plans and Social Security
3. Social Security (SSA-1099, RRB-1099)
4. Enter the amount of ‌net benefits in Box 5.

You don't need to do anything else than this or to report you received a SSA 1042S rather than a SSA 1099. You do not need to pay a fee for TurboTax expert help. Rest assured, this is all you need!!
