Deductions & credits

There is a workaround for the missing "All Other Counties".

 

If you will choose "Angola-All other" (or any "X-All other" where X is the name of a country in the list), then the default $31,770 amount will appear on line 29b, and if you are otherwise eligible, you will get your housing exclusion.

 

Keep documentation in your tax file as to why Angola appeared on your return.
