Deductions & credits

The Foreign Earned Income Excluded Less Related Deductions would be the amount of your FEIE usually. Most taxpayers using the standard deduction don't have "related deductions" here - but those wouldn't be separately identified anywhere in the TurboTax entries if you did, which is why it isn't populated for you. If you are itemizing deductions on your return (Schedule A) for things like mortgage interest and medical expenses - and those items are related to the foreign income that you earned, then you could have related deductions.

Total Foreign Earned Income could be the same number (if you exclude 100% of your income), or it will be the total amount of your foreign wages if you  have a partial exclusion.
