Why am I being asked to fill out Form 8919?
I am a full time employee who earns a salary and pays taxes on my income abroad. I do not currently live in the US.
I filled out my foreign income manually since we don’t have W2s or 1099s where I live. Now I’m being asked to fill out the 8919 but I’m not sure why. I’m not an independent contractor. I work for a globally recognizes tech company.
Can anyone let me know how to remove this document from my filing or which reason code I need to use if I can’t remove it? If I mail in the return instead of e-filing can I just leave this “error” and not get penalized for it?
