Question by jd_astro: Is an employer’s matching contribution considered as “earned income”?
In a foreign retirement plan I received matching contributions from my employer. If it is “earned income”, it may be excludable when I receive it, but the interest earned will not be. I’ll have to re-calcluate taxes for those years however.
