Form 1040 Line 1H needs to have Foreign Earned Income amount since we are not claiming Foreign Income Exclusion

Where did you enter it. Did you mark it as foreign employer?

[JagPat]

Yes

[JagPat]

It does not flow to Form 1040 line 1 H, it is foreign earned income ( foreign payroll of US citizen ) who does not want to claim foreign income exclusion ( Form 2555)

[sjrcpa]

Where is it flowing?

[JagPat]

It is flowing to Box 1a on 1040 which is incorrect since it is not on W2 and it is Foreign Earned Wage

[sjrcpa]

So this might be close enough if the return comes out correctly.

But I'd go back over the "W-2" input again.

See if the section about entering wages from a Canadian T4 in this link helps.
