Your foreign income will be reported under the section Less Common Income in Foreign Earned Income and Exclusion
Foreign earned income includes wages, salaries, bonuses, commissions, professional fees, and tips earned in a foreign country, foreign earned income also includes foreign business profits if 100% of the profits were derived from your personal services.
This is where you should report any foreign earned income that you have not already reported in other areas (such as your W-2, or 1099-INT, or 1099-DIV).
When you come to the screen that says Would You Like to Try and Exclude Your Foreign Earned Income? This is where you would check if you can take advantage of Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. Or you can decline to exclude the income and check if the Foreign Tax Credit might be a better fit. You can even combine them but cannot double-dip on the same earnings.
