@Elvin Richmond , I tried , with the latest update , windows Home & Business.
The scenario I used --- US citizen, Single, employed by a US entity ( with US address and a Foreign Base address) , employed by US entity, based in Sudan, earned 130,000 , no housing or any other employer provided benefits / funding , no COLA etc. to include.
Chose a 12 month test period of 01/01/2024 through 10/30/2024, said I have waiver, allowed me to fill out explanation of "waiver" as Combat zone declared 10/20/2024. No trips back home . Did not use FEIE priorly, established foreign home on 01/01/2024.
TurboTax accepted all my entries , allowed FEIE of 105,000 based on 304 days of presence in foreign country.
Ran checks , found error, related to employer's US address , Foreign Address etc. Digital currency questions, Foreign Bank account questions, Any distribution from a Foreign Trust/person etc. Once these fixed , TurboTax is happy.
What I did not try is to go further and see e-filing is possible.
So at this point I do not see if there is a problem or not --
Obviously, even though you are frustrated with TurboTax , as regards this issue, absent other facts, I do not believe that a tax professional ( familiar with international taxation ) would do better. But of course it is your return and your are the one on the block.
I am a volunteer here, have no financial or other interest in Intuit, TurboTax, Lacerte , Pro-Series etc. , nor have any friends/ relatives working for Intuit or its subsidiaries.
Is there more I can do for you ?
