I created an entirely new return and performed the exact steps in my post. Nothing was done beyond that.
To answer your questions
1) I do not see a form 2555 (probably because I said NOT to take the exclusion)
2) The income is one Wages, Salaries, and Tips worksheet as "Wages from a foreign source". As I mentioned in my original post, I went to Federal Taxes -> Wages & Income -> Less common income -> Foreign Earned income and exclusion and added 100K to a statement from my foreign employer. Seletected NOT to exclude my foreign income
3) It also appears on my 1040 (as I would expect) on line 1.
4) No schedule D/8849. As mentioned in my original post, this is a test return, with nothing entered beyond what I said above.
5) AGI on line 11 is the 100K. Taxable is income is 87.45K (which is just the 100K less standard deduction)
6) Tax liability is 15015 on line 24 of 1040
7) I completed form 1116 by ignoring anything except general category income, saying I do not have carryover, and putting in 10K of taxes already paid to "other".
😎I don't see a schedule A (probably because i'm taking standard), but I chose to take the credit on the interview.
