MFJ with Non-Resident Spouse and Foreign Self Employement Income
First year filling MFJ with statement to treat non-resident spouse as resident for US tax purposes. Question remains does spouse's self employment income who is UK national (lived all year there) is recorded on schedule C or under other income section like household wages not on W2 or other income and then claiming foreign earned income exclusion?
I also realize regardless of how we report spouses foreign income we'll need to attach certificate of coverage to make sure self employment tax is zero for US since it is paid in UK.
