Thanks for your reply!
BTW I live in LA County, with the fires in January, the tax deadline was extended till October (in case you were wondering why I'm this late!).
I was attempting to claim the foreign earned income exclusion.
Yes I had 3 streams of income last year (2024). I worked a
1) self-employed venture that is local to California
2) part-time position that gave me a w-2 (also in California)
Then, in June of 2024 I quit my w-2 job when I was hired for:
3) a remote full-time position with a company based in Canada (which sent me a T4, their w-2 equivalent I guess). For this work, I was hired remotely, so I still lived in the US the entire time. I was eligible for this position as a Canada-US dual Citizen.
Note that I never lived outside of my resident country (US) in 2024, so Turbotax's two tests to determine foreign income exclusion (physical presence & bonafide residence) didn't seem to fit in my situation based on what I read in their descriptions. Unless I read them incorrectly.
When I tried to declare my foreign income from the Canadian T4 I noticed that it was wrongly lumping the other two US sources (w-2 and self-employed) into that amount, drastically changing my taxes owed amount.
I'm using Turbo Tax on a desktop, and just basic at this point.
Thank you, any advice would be appreciated!
