Two different employers W2s on form 2555

Hello,

I have a client that received 2 different w2's from 2 different employers for his work abroad.

Proconnect says I can only have 1 form 2555 for efile.

Does this mean that I have to paper file his return, or is there a work around that I am unaware of?

Thanks

This is the critical diagnostic message: Form 2555: For e-file returns, the IRS requires each Form 2555 to have a unique SSN. Married filing joint returns are allowed one Form 2555 for the taxpayer and one for the spouse, all other filing statuses are allowed one Form 2555 for the taxpayer.
