BTW I discovered this strategy for maximizing FTC in an article written by protax consulting. I included a link to the article which maybe caused TT to nix it. Google "Maximizing the Foreign Tax Credit on Qualified Dividends" and you should find the article. Scroll down to the part which reads....CAN FURTHER STEPS BE TAKEN TO REDUCE THE TAXPAYER’S OVERALL TAX BURDEN? THE ANSWER IS “POSSIBLY.”
In my case the reduction will be significant if I can get TT to work. Otherwise I will have to file a paper return.
