Married filing jointly, professor abroad more than 331 days, but wife in USA more than 45 days.
Greetings. My wife and I are both US citizens. Next year, i.e., calendar year 2025, I will be on a one-year sabbatical leave abroad where I will be paid by my US university. I will not have any income from any foreign source. Also, I will be out of the USA for more than 331 days (Jan - Dec 2025).
My wife on the other hand will be in the USA for at least 45 days. She will have no income for tax year 2025. Since we file taxes as "married filing jointly", will my income still be eligible for the foreign earned income exclusion? How do I file using turbotax?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
