I had two sources of income in 2024: one from the USA and one from Poland. The income from Poland was reported on a different form, which I entered as another W-2. However, I keep getting an error when entering the Polish Employer Identification Number, as one digit doesn’t fit. What should I do to fix this and submit my documents correctly?
Did the Polish employer pay social security and Medicare payments? You cannot make the entry as a W2 if they did not report the information on a W2 to the IRS and SSA.
Taxes were not paid to American institutions; they were only paid in Poland. Since I cannot get a refund for that tax, I did not file the form to claim the tax credit.

@diana-ternovaja2015 You can enter the income as Miscellaneous Income:
Under Less Common Income select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
You may be able to get a foreign tax credit for the taxes you paid to Poland- look in the Deductions & Credits section.
