Update: Latest E-File Rejection - E-file rejected due to ForeignTaxCreditSource/USTaxWithheldOnDividendAmt
I started a new return and imported and/or entered all data required by the Turbo Tax program. I ran the Turbo Tax review for any errors. There were none. I submitted the new return for e-filing. Turbo Tax e-mail response indicated e-file submitted. Within less than 30 minutes I received an e-mail from Turbo Tax indicating the e-filing had been rejected by the IRS.
I then reviewed line-by-line the entries on Form 1116 as submitted with the IRS instructions for Form 1116. All entries were correct per those instructions. The only entry that appeared suspect was in Part II column l has RIC instead of a date (such as 12/31/2020). Per Form 1116 instructions there is an exception where something other than a date is entered for foreign taxes suspended under section 909 where "909 Taxes " is entered in column l. This does not apply to my situation. Not sure if the RIC placed in column l by Turbo Tax is appropriate or if the program should have put a date in column l.
I am of the opinion that either the Turbo Tax program has a bug or the IRS verification of Turbo Tax file is not working correctly. Unless this gets fixed in the Turbo Tax program, the IRS verification process or the interface between Turbo Tax and the IRS, I see no alternative but to a submit the return on paper via "snail mail".
