Dear(s).

I am a NRI and was filling my ITR-2 as 'Non Resident Indian' for AY2019-20. This year department has introduced Jurisdiction Residence for NRI.

1. What details are expected here? Is it the country that I currently stay (USA?)

2. Also its a free text field (NOT a drop down). I tried entering US, USA, United States of America and was able to generate XML. But when I try loading that to income-tax web site it gives error - 'The value 'USA' of element ITRForm.JurisdictionResidence' in no valid'

Please advice.
