Foreign Earned Income Exclusion

Hi there! 

I'm an American citizen living and working for a dutch company in the Netherlands. After doing my research I found that two options are available to file taxes this year: Form 1116 (Foreign Tax Credit) or Form 2555 (Foreign Earned Income). 

I believe Form 2555 is more suited to my current situation, but there is still a question mark regarding the fact that I've worked for two employers during tax year 2022. 

• Employer 1 from 1-1-2022 to 5-9-2022
• Employer 2 from 6-1-2022 to 31-12-2022 (still working there)

Because Form 2555 only allows for one employer, should I file two separate Form 2555 (one for each employer) and add up the total of earned income from both to include them on the 1040 form?

Could use a bit of guidance here 🙂 
Thanks you in advance,
