how sure are you about the e-filing not being supported for Form 1116, Sch B? I was told by a lady at the "Office of President" that the e-filing of Form 1116, Sch B, will be supported on Mar 16th (soft deadline; no guarantees). Are you saying TT is now forgoing this effort? Most people would rather just file, get the part of the refund (or pay their owed taxes), amend later (only after the original return has been processed and paid-out/refunded), than MAIL the original return in. What if the mail is lost and IRS never tells us? In case we owe money, we will be charged w/ penalties & interest. Also, the backlog is even more severe w/ mailing - paper returns are just sitting in trucks from last year. At least w/the amendment approach we get the refund of non-foreign income taxes back sooner. Amendment only delays getting the FTC which in most cases, is smaller part of the refund.
