I have foreign wages and foreign taxes paid. I completed the section for Form 1116, but the form doesn't end up in the return. How can I get Form 1116 to generate?

I am not using the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion. I just want the credit.

Level 15

Take a look at your 1116 form to see what your foreign income to total income ratio looks like and what limitations are on your form.

In desktop, switch to Forms Mode.
For online:

4. If you have not paid, select pay now.

If you need extra time, filing an extension by April 15, 2026, moves your submission deadline to October 15. See if you need to file a state extension Any taxes owed are still due in full by the original April 15 date. Pay through either Direct Pay or your individual online account.
