Deductions & credits

The income is not transferring from Foreign Earned Income and Exclusion area currently after telling the program you do not qualify. 

 

Instead, enter it as "Other Reportable Income" under Miscellaneous Income under Less Common Income.

 

When you enter the information for the tax credit, enter the income again (to reconcile the credit, it also will not report to income from here.) 

 

Sorry for the confusion - when working on tax credit you will need to answer "yes" that you have reported the income elsewhere. 

 

Foreign wages earned  will be "general category income" when working through the credit section.
