Form 1040X Attachments

Post by ontn »

Moved to the US in May on TN Status.

Already Filed Form 1040 with no FEI stated.

Since learned I earned a small amount of Canadian Income in early 2009.

I will file 1040X with a 2555 that eliminates the full amount.

Question: should I also attach all other forms/schedules and/or an amended Form 1040?

NOTE 1: FEIE appears to completely cancel the FEI, so the AGI (Line 37) is unchanged vs Original 1040 Filing

NOTE 2: Nelson, please note the 2009 Form 1040X is different than in years past.

FEIE only applies to wages. Other questions are purely mechanical.
After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best

It's more than mechanical to me...

As Form 1040X has been redesigned vs prior years, I cannot find relevant advise elsewhere.
