Hello,
I have an NRA spouse without a TN.
I have been using HR Block for some years but have had difficulty using efile and resorted to mailing in my return.
It was my understanding that the IRS did not support efiling this kind of return due to not having a TN and needing to put NRA on the return.
Last year HR Block let me print and post the return but charged $50 for the pleasure.
This year I found HR Block wouldn't let me add my previous years tax credit carry forward / carry back unless I used their tax advisor service paying an extra $60.
So I tried using OLT's free file which can be used with a gross adjusted income up to $73,000.
I was delighted to find it permitted me to efile with NRA. I have since received confirmation that the IRS has accepted my return and processed my refund.
Is the efile NRA spouse without TN new or did the situation change some time ago and HR Block didn’t keep up, or was it always HR Block that was the problem?
I would be grateful to hear about any other tax software that you know of that supports this combination of circumstances.
I was very pleased with OLT. It wasn’t quite as intuitive as HR Block but had a good range of forms for my needs, foreign tax credit, child tax credit, etc, and free is great.
