Thanks! Yes it's my wife who has foreign earned income.
I made sure there was no more Form 2555 that could be deleted, and it was not regenerated. However, TurboTax insisted I fix the form when I tried to e-file
I just ran a couple of scenarios, and think I know what your cause may be..
By any chance, was your wife's foreign earned income entered in the W-2 interview? If so, I think I may know what may be flagging the return for more info related to a 2555 even though you deleted the 2555, and how to get around it.
Even if the foreign earned income is NOT W-2 income, I can hopefully still tell you what you might be able to do to clear everything related to a Form 2555 and solve the error.
So, in summary, please state if the wife's foreign earned income was reported in the W-2 section, or if it was foreign wages (not on a W-2) which were entered directly into the FEI interview. Or was it another type, such as self-employment income or a partnership K-1 entered in the FEI interview?
