Deductions & credits

@daniel-t-4c-com ,  need more info on your own visa status -- are you on H1-B or as an immigrant-- ditto for your spouse.

Because if you are a US person ( citizen/GreenCard / Resident for tax purposes ), then your world income is taxed by US  , otherwise only US income is taxed.  Also if the work is performed  here  on the mainland  ( i.e your tax home is US ), then the income is  US sourced.

So please answer my questions -- that will tell me whether you can use TurboTax or not.

Also do you have any permanent home in SA  ( as I understand the treaty, persons with permanent residence / property in SA are taxed as resident of SA -- but of course I will go through the treaty again once I hear from you .
