Deductions & credits

@alloway0316  as far as I know  you can use only one path for foreign earned in come -- FEIE or FTC/ FT Deduction.  However, if you choose  FEIE and you have unexcluded income then yes you are eligible to use FTC or FT Deduction  for the  that .

 I thought  ( and I  am unsure here ) congress/ IRS had changed rulings such that  you could get child tax credit even if you have  FEIE.  But I need to loom up this topic.
