Question

I added Foreign Earned Income by mistake and now I can't remove it. How do you get rid of this so I can file?

Follow these steps to delete the forms associated with the Foreign Earned Income, which should allow you to bypass the errors and file:

 

  1. On the left menu, click on Tax Tools (If you do not see this, first click on ("Pick up where I left off").
  2. Click on Tools.
  3. In the pop-up box click on Delete a Form.
  4. Delete Form 2555 or Form 2555-EZ (Foreign Earned Income Exclusion). 
  5. Click Delete on the next screen to confirm.
  6. Scroll down the list and delete any Worksheets (may be abbreviated Wks related to foreign income that may also appear).
