Combat-Zone Contract Workers Qualify for Foreign Earned Income Exclusion

Certain U.S. citizens or resident aliens, specifically contractors or employees of contractors supporting the U.S. Armed Forces in designated combat zones, may now qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion. The Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 changed the tax home requirement for eligible taxpayers, enabling them to claim the foreign earned income exclusion even if their “abode” is in the United States, and it applies for tax year 2018 and subsequent years.
