As an American living and working full-time in Scotland, I have now finished my federal tax return with H&R Block, and I have printed and signed the return to send to the IRS.
Step 2 of H&R Block's filing instructions says to attach a copy of each "W-2, W-2G, and 2439" -- none of which apply to me as I have only foreign earned income already excluded on form 2555-EZ.
Do I need to attach my payslips as evidence of my foreign wages? Or do I just need to retain them in case I am audited?
Also do I need to attach statements of interest accrued to me on my foreign savings accounts, or only report the amount?
Many thanks,
Sidney
