Bottom Line, I paid $1,475 in Federal Taxes Owes (Received a Refund of $296 from the State of Maryland).
Now, in Detail:
I worked in the US from 1/1/18 to 6/22/18 paying taxes (1 FED EXM, 1 ST EXM). I arrived in South Korea on 6/23/18. By November, I was paying taxes again, after being notified by my employer that the FEIE limit has been reached. So: Taxes Paid (January - June, November, December); Taxes Unpaid (July - October).
On 3/16/19, I filed an extension and paid the owed amount of $1,475. On 6/27/19, I filed the taxes.
I made the mistake of not including the qualified housing cost. After meeting the Physical Presence Test in May of 2019, my exclusion amount would have been $5,356.
I believe, by the time that I filed the taxes in June 2019, I should have received a refund for the amount I paid in March 2018. Can I please have my line of thoughts verified?
If I am correct, how do I go about amending my 2018 taxes? I missed the exclusion in the FEIE form, not the 1040. Also, I did NOT file via TurboTax, so I cannot amend it using the software.
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated!
