The taxpayer lives in America for the entire year in 2023, but she received Wages and retirement from a Chinese employer (she never lived in China during 2023).

Question: Where should I enter her "foreign wages' in Form 1040? Can I enter it to Line 1 H "Other Earned Income"in form 1040 since she lived in America for the entire year 2023? Where can I find the input for Line 1H in Proconnect? or should I still fill out form 2555?

Thanks!

No 2555.

Enter the wages as wages. There's an input spot to say foreign employer.

I'd enter the retirement as any other retirement, too unless there's a special treaty provision.

Consider whether FBAR, 8938, 3520 and/or other foreign reporting forms are applicable.

As for your reply-"Enter the wages as wages. There's an input spot to say, foreign employer. "

[ Sorry, I can't find this input location. Could you please give me more guidance on where to find this "input" in Proconnect?]

Thank you very much!
