I work outside the US and used TT Deluxe for my 2024 return. I entered my foreign earned income, and foreign tax. This isn't visible on the final return - should it be?

I filed my taxes with an accountant last year and my income was visible on the final return. The version that TurboTax has prepared does not have this - please could someone explain this to me?

@gbaumberg , since we cannot see your return, I need more information about your filing.

(a) Assuming you are US person ( citizen/GreenCard );

(b) You are abroad ( which country please ) and  earning from a local entity / or self-employed -- please confirm

(c)  You have been abroad for at least 330 days out of a continuous 12 month test period -- please confirm  ( when did you establish your foreign tax home, are you still abroad  etc. ).

In 2023 did you use  Foreign Tax Credit or did you use Foreign Earned In come Exclusion ?   What did you use for 2024 ?  I ask because you mentioned you entered earned income and Foreign Taxes paid.

Did you also participate in FICA or  its equivalent in  your tax-home country ?

Also how did you enter your earned income --- as a W-2 or under "Foreign Earned Income  & Exclusion" ?

I will circle back once I hear from you --yes ?
