Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I qualified for the FEIE through the Physical presence test, April 10, 2016 - April 13, 2017. I met the 330/365 Physical Presence Test also between August 4, 2017 - August 3rd, 2018. In between April 13, 2017 and August 4, 2017, I was still overseas working as well but took two 20 day leave periods in the United States (1 in April, 1 in July). My question is that there are qualifying days in 2017 year in both periods. The way I read the 2555 instructions is that you can use any qualifying days in a tax year that fall within physical presence test dates.
