Get your taxes done using TurboTax

TT does not flag the issue as an error, but the IRS does.  So when you use Step-by-step it will say things are good to go -- they are not.  When you use Forms approach there will not be any flags on the 1099-DIV or Form 1116 either.  You have to go into each and search down the errors on your own.  My previous post explains the process I used.  It only took seven fails before I caught all the errors and succeeded on the eight attempt.  Now that I laid out the steps, hopefully that will reduce the number of attempts others will need to catch the errors the IRS finds but TT misses.
