Dear all: last year I filed my taxes including a tax exemption (tax treaty 21, Venezuela). Do you know where in the process can I include it this year? Thanks.

You can enter your treaty exempt income as a negative number in the field for Miscellaneous Income.

Once your return is open:

• Click on Federal at the left hand side of the screen
• Click on Income & Expenses at the top of the screen
• Click on All Income and Scroll down to Less Common Income and Click Show More
• Scroll down and Click Start on Miscellaneous Income
  
• Scroll down to Other Reportable Income and Click Start
• Enter the US Venezuela Treaty Article 21 and the amount (as a negative number).

This is great, Karen. Thanks. But what would the amount be, then?

[KarenJ]

You would enter your payments from abroad for education or training or your grant allowance or award amount or your wage income amount in the software before you deduct the $5,000 of treaty exempt income.

Perfect, Karen. All payments have already been entered (wages, scholarships, all of that). I'm now only then including these $5000. Thanks!
