My foreign tax credit is $17. Although this is way below the $300 threshold, Form 1116 was downloaded and populated with the data. After hours of research on this problem I finally found out that I could delete the form, which should never have been downloaded from the start. I also deleted the original 1099 and then manually re-entered it (desktop version). Form 1116 was still there, but after rebooting, I could easily delete it.
