Self employed

Hello @AnnetteB6 

 

One related question: considering the same situation but in a case where the foreign country needs to withhold taxes? 

 

First thought was:

- report income as self employed (work in the US -> US income)

- report tax withheld in Foreign Taxes paid (General Category in 1116) 

(not entering the amount received again since it is not foreign income) 

- report US estimated taxes

 

Unfortunately, no compensation shows. Am I missing something? Or tax withheld for income in another country does not count to lower tax due in the US.

 

Thanks.
