Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Thank you, rogge1722, for your kind reply.
I did as you recommended, but unfortunately the "Your tax breaks" screen in Turbo Tax still shows that I get $0 in foreign tax credit for 2020.
When I was going through the interview screens as you suggested, it seems like I wasn't given the opportunity to enter the interest income that applies to the foreign tax paid. So I could see how Turbo Tax would think that since there was no income associated with foreign tax paid, I shouldn't get any foreign tax credit. Hmmm.
Another thing happened as I re-went through the interview screens. A "First Year You are Eligible?" screen popped up giving me three choices related to some sort of "Simplified Limitation Election Eligibility." I have no idea what to choose.
But again, the big issue is how to get the foreign tax credit. Perhaps someone else could help.
I'm grateful for your having read about my issue. Thank you!
