May I ask if the spouse of a federal employee working overseas is also considered the same? What if ithe spouse is self employed with an LLC registered in the US, but operating while here overseas?
The two reasons I ask is I’m confused what to answer for QBI and since the equipment I use in my business is “used outside the United States” I’ve read that I can’t take Section 179 or Bonus Depreciation and must use the ADS method for depreciation (which seems insane to spread over like 20 years for machines that average $300 and computer/tablet at $1500 each) Do you know if I’d also be considered operating in the US as self employed even though we are here under SOFA status and have an APO, AP military address as our legal address?
