The foreign sourced dividends should be entered initially on a Form 1099-DIV entry. Then, you go to the Foreign Taxes section under Deductions and Credits in TurboTax to see if you can get a credit for the foreign taxes. I am thinking you may be trying to enter the foreign dividends in the foreign taxes section but skipping the Form 1099-DIV entry. Here is how you make the Form 1099-DIV entry:
- Choose the Federal option on your left menu bar
- Choose Wages & Income
- Look for Interest and Dividends
- Choose Dividends on Form 1099-DIV
