Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Here is the work around.

In Forms Mode, open up form 4952. In line 4g, type in the required amount. TT will follow thru with the calculations to line 6.

 

Next open up the Schedule D tax worksheet. Put the pointer over line 3 and right click. On the box that appears, click on Override. Enter the amount from the 4952/4g. TT will follow thru with the calculations to line 47.

 

Next open up the form 1116 Comp. Wks. Delete the entry in line 1k as previously mentioned.

 

TT will accept these Overrides without causing any errors so the return can be e-filed.

 

BTW on page 4 of the IRS instructions for form 4952, in the Note paragraph, it mentions this 4952/1116 strategy. Apparently the IRS has no problem with it being utilized.
