Get your taxes done using TurboTax
@user17705019283 , I created your situation -- US person, single, W-2 income ( with federal, state and FICA withholdings ) and a foreign ( Canada ) dividend income with FTC paid. I took care to enter the dividend income ( i.e. no import ) and foreign taxes paid (from relevant boxes of NR-4 -- box 16 and 17 ) in US$. Note that the dividend income entered was as if I had a 1099-DIV but did not enter any Foreign Taxes Paid in that area. Then while working on " Credits and Deductions " Tab, "I will choose what I work on", chose "Foreign Taxes ". Here I entered the foreign income again and the taxes paid to Canada --- this is a bit confusing but persistence paid off. The result was that form 1116 was correctly filled out -- make sure you choose " Passive Income" -- Turbo default is general category.
It does work as expected. I confirmed by going into forms mode and checked all the forms and entries therein.
I did not ask/ enter any tax treaty assertions for this dividend income and the resulting FTC.
If you need more on this , please feel welcome to either add to this thread or PM me ( just NO PII -- Personally Identifiable Information ).
