Can I claim house rental deduction when I report foreign employment income because I work and stay abroad?

I work and stay abroad, can I claim house rental abroad when I report foreign employment income?

You would need a T2200 form from your employer to claim rent as an employment expense, or you would need to be self-employed.

There is no Federal credit for personal rental expenses.
