Deductions & credits

 

Do you qualify for the exclusion?  Did you go all the way to the end of the section?  Please provide more information.

 

If you received a W-2 or you have foreign self-employment income, you must enter them in TurboTax before you start the foreign earned income exclusion section.  Only if you received a statement from a foreign employer should you enter that directly in the foreign earned income exclusion section.

 

If you received a US W-2, enter it as you would any W-2 and on the next screen check the box that you earned the income or some of the income outside the US
