2007 Foreign Earned Income Tax Worksheet—Line 16

1.	Enter the amount from your 2008 Schedule J, line 15	1.
2.	Enter the amount from your (and your spouse's, if filing jointly) 2007 Form 2555, line 45, or Form 2555-EZ, line 18	2.
3.	Add lines 1 and 2	3.
4.	Tax on the amount on line 3. Use the 2007 Tax Rate Schedules on page J-10, the 2007 Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet on page J-11,* or the 2007 Schedule D Tax Worksheet in the 2007 Schedule D instructions,* whichever applies.	4.
5.	Tax on the amount on line 2. Use the 2007 Tax Rate Schedules on page J-10.	5.
6.	Subtract line 5 from line 4. Enter the result. If zero or less, enter -0-. Also include this amount on your 2008 Schedule J, line 16	6.
*Enter the amount from line 3 above on line 1 of the 2007 Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet or the 2007 Schedule D Tax Worksheet if you use either of those worksheets to figure the tax on line 4 above. Complete the rest of that worksheet through line 6 (line 10 if you use the Schedule D Tax Worksheet). Next, you must determine if you had a capital gain excess. To find out if you had a capital gain excess, subtract the amount from your 2007 Form 1040, line 43, from line 6 of your 2007 Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet (line 10 of your 2007 Schedule D Tax Worksheet). If the result is more than zero, that amount is your capital gain excess.
If you did not have a capital gain excess, complete the rest of either of those worksheets according to the worksheet's instructions. Then complete lines 5 and 6 above.
If you had a capital gain excess, complete a second 2007 Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet or 2007 Schedule D Tax Worksheet (whichever applies) as instructed above but in its entirety and with the following additional modifications. Then complete lines 5 and 6 above. These modifications are to be made only for purposes of filling out the 2007 Foreign Earned Income Tax Worksheet above.
1. Reduce the amount you would otherwise enter on line 3 of your 2007 Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet or line 9 of your 2007 Schedule D Tax Worksheet (but not below zero) by your capital gain excess.
2. Reduce the amount you would otherwise enter on your 2007 Form 1040, line 9b, (but not below zero) by any of your capital gain excess not used in (1) above.
3. Reduce the amount on your 2007 Schedule D (Form 1040), line 18, (but not below zero) by your capital gain excess.
4. Include your capital gain excess as a loss on line 16 of your 2007 Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain Worksheet on page D-9 of the 2007 Instructions for Schedule D (Form 1040).

If you amended your return or the IRS made changes to it, enter the corrected amount.
