Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The TurboTax program takes all of your foreign taxes direct from the 1099 forms that they're paid on in most instances for simplicities sake.  If you would like more control over how they are being entered in to the 1116 form then you can enter each of your foreign tax payments separately linking them to the income that each was paid due to.

 

Go to deductions and credits and scroll down to 'Estimates and Other Taxes Paid'.  You can go through that section and enter each instance of foreign taxes paid and the corresponding income and you will be able to view a summary of the foreign taxes as you work on it.  Just make sure that all of your income - including the income from foreign sources - is already entered into the return prior to working on the foreign taxes paid.
