Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You shouldn't enter the foreign income in the Foreign Income section in TurboTax, since you already entered the income when you entered your W-2 Form. You do enter it when asked for in the Foreign Tax credit section, but that won't add it to your income on your tax return. It's just used to determine the amount of foreign tax credit that is allowed. Indicate in that section that all foreign income is not reported on 1099 forms when asked and you will have an option to enter your foreign income.

 

As far as the treaty is concerned, you need to file it as is and use the foreign tax credit to reduce or eliminate double taxation caused by the foreign tax. So, I don't see the treaty applicable.
