Form 2555T. I have foreign income which is passive. I don't want the exclusion. A "0" keeps entering on Form 2555 qnd says I must put in dates for days abroad. How do I fix this?

Here's how to  remove—a Form 2555 

  1. Sign into TurboTax and open or continue your return.
  2. Do a search for foreign income, and then select the Jump to link in the search results.
  3. Continue through the foreign income section until you reach the screen Would You Like to Try and Exclude Your Foreign Earned Income? (if single), or Whose Foreign Income Would You Like to Try and Exclude? (if married). No (to remove it), select Continue, and follow any on-screen instructions.

You can File Form 1116 to claim the foreign tax credit if you are an individual, estate, or trust, and you paid or accrued certain foreign taxes to a foreign country or U.S. possession.

Where do I enter the foreign tax credit (Form 1116) or deduction?
