I work abroad & have foreign income which I entered in W2 box 1. In the page where I am asked to confirm my wages I already entered, it is being doubled. Why doubled?

[zamanatirs]

My foreign salary is 121,764. It is being double to 243,528 right above the box of Wages Adjustment. My foreign tax credit is 121,764 but because salary is being doubled, I am have a US tax liability of 22264 whereas I pay high tax in the country where I work. Why is turbo tax doubling my salary on its own?

You do not enter your foreign salary as a form W-2. You enter it in the foreign earned income section. Entering it also as a form W-2 will double-count your salary.

You now have to delete the form W-2 that you entered by clicking on the trash can icon next to it on the list of W-3 forms.
