Where do you find instructions concerning the various codes in Form 2555?

For example: Code D; Code E; Code F; Code G

There are other codes as well.

Which code am I to use if a person has been in a foreign country since Jan. 1, 2005 and now is in the U.S. (came back June 5, 2008) in order to raise money to go back to the same foreign country?

It talks about direct assignment ratios and etc.

In the ATX program at the bottom of Form 2555 there is a tab called "earned inc. allocation." When you click on that tab you will find these codes listed. Where do you find instructions concerning these codes?

They are basically defined beside each code. The worksheet is basically self-explanatory. Just fill in the number of days, and the worksheet calculates the percentages automatically.
