Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Never mind. I recalculated the tax by hand a second time and found an error I made on my first try. The result being that TurboTax calculations were correct and it is the IRS that is wrong. Contacting telephone support was helpful as the person I spoke with was able to provide a way for me to send a report directly to TurboTax although she didn't seem particularly knowledgable about how TurboTax did its calculations. For what its worth, on the Foreign Income Exclusion worksheet, TurboTax buries the steps that the IRS requires you to calculate using two passes through the Qualified Dividends worksheet. The Qualified Dividend worksheet that TurboTax completes is not applicable, is correctly ignored by TurboTax but does confuse any person looking over the worksheets to figure out what TurboTax is doing.
