Foreign Earned Income trips to USA error

[smroth41]

When entering my Foreign earned income exclusion data, I had 2 trips back tot he US - when entering those the form requires at least one day in the US while working.  My trips were personal and I need to enter 0 days working during the trip.  Seems to be an error in that form in 2021 TurboTax?????

@smroth41 , I think this issue has been around for a long time -- just use 1 day for US business days ( for each trip ).  If I remember right this is because the IRS processing does not allow zero US business days ( for some stupid  and unk  reason)

I can - but this wasn't an issue in previous years - one could enter 0 days.  It won't change the end result of the exclusion, just isn't correct.

I agree, I have not seen this in previous years either.
