I think you are saying:
- the 1116 includes the RSU income and you are claiming a credit for paying taxes in India on the income
- the RSU is in your W2
- You have subtracted the extra from the W2 under Other Income.
This would not be right. You can't have credit for income not being taxed. Options are:
- You could subtract the income and not claim the foreign credit or
- claim the foreign credit and not subtract the income.
If you have the 1116 covering the income and foreign taxes, it is easier to not subtract the income and not worry about the 8833.
