You don't say whether you are living in Canada or the US, so we are not sure of the question.

If he lives in Canada with you, and has US income to report, it may be that it will have to be filed in both countries.  If you are in Canada, it would be filed under foreign income.

If you are in the US, as Sally7 states, you must go to the US forum at www.turbotax.com

You will not be able to file his income tax in Canada.  He will need to file a US return in the States.  You will be able to enter his net income on your return, in the intro and address area. You will have to enter a social insurance number of 000 000 000.

This is the Canadian forum for TurboTax.  We never deal with US tax questions.
