Form 2555-T is not complete

Just checking..  Form 2555-T needs updating before it can file?

Hi there, 

 

For some reason, Form 2555-T isn't available on Turbotax.  Any reason as to why?

I have done the search for it and nothing comes up.

 

Best regards,

Slava

Form 2555 ( Foreign Earned Income) has not been finalized. The IRS has to finalize and approve the form before it is available on TurboTax.  

Please check the link for availability date Federal Form Availability

Dates for when the income was earned are missing. The explanation for the screenshot suggests to go to the search box and enter foreign income.  There will be a Jump to link in the search results.

 

This will lead you through the interview to the Bona Fide Resident Test or Physical Presence Test to determine what amount of foreign income can be excluded. See the screenshot below.
