I will try it, thank you for your help. I rmain with a problem. I will get my income details in Belgium at the earliest during the month of June. Maybe a bit too lte inorder to file on time. Therefore i need o ask for an extension  of the date of submission. I have tried to do it with turbotax but the system does not accept my adress in Belgium nor my belgian phone number. Any way around this problem. Thank you

If you try to file an extension to exclude your foreign earned income, you have to use Form 2350.  If you are not claiming the extension to exclude your foreign income, go through the extension path in the program to file a Form 4686.  Without a US mailing address, you cannot e-file. Instead, you will have to leave the address portion blank , print out the form and hand-write your foreign address on the form and submit by mail.

To file an extension to exclude the foreign earned income, you will need to file a Form 2350, not the normal extension Form 4686.  As TurboTax does not support the form 2350, you will need to download from IRS website, fill it in and submit by mail.
