I tried your suggestion but still not getting the correct result. Allow me to give you the scenario.
H and W filing joint return. Each has 1099Div from broker. Both 1099Div are for foreign dividends from two countries, A &B. When I enter H's 1099Div, the interview asks how much is foreign source, I enter the whole amount but it only allows to enter one country. It does not ask to split the total between two countries. The same problem when entering W's 1099 Div. When the amounts transfer to Form 1116 line1(a), the amount shows zero or some incorrect amount.
If I can enter the correct amount to report for each country for the 1099 Div of H and W during the Shedule B entry, the amounts that will transfer to Form 1116 line 1(a) will be correct and my problem will be solved. What am I doing wrong? I am using TT Premier. HELP...
