Can you please help me with the Form 2555?

I've researched my issue & believe I have to file form 2555 for my client who lives & works in Germany. I've never done this form before, & I'm wondering if I need to check the box to "Flow Foreign Wages to Form 1040 Smart Worksheet"? My client qualifies to exclude this income, but I'm guessing I'll need to include it in income, in order to take the credit. Please help. Thank you!

Yes, you need to check the box.

You will also need to fill out the Physical Presence Abroad or Permanent Foreign Resident sections, depending on which criteria qualifies your client for the FEIE.
