Form 1116-B and Online Turbo Tax
All, I thought this message could turn out to be useful to you. This morning after my coffee and encouraged (not to say energized) by all the great replies rapidly populating this thread... I decided to go ahead and give my tax filing one more try.
Enthusiastic like a Don Quixote (I am French... so never quite understood the x in Don Quixote.... been told it is old Spanish) , I went ahead and started to fill out the various questions regarding foreign tax credit online. (Must repeat here that I am using the TT online)
Once the interview was completed, I started to feel anxious again. @marcuscato I still need to apply your mythical animal philosophy in my personal life. I tried (really) but 1 week is probably not enough to master it completely.
The reason for my distress is that whatever number I reported in the carryover form questionnaire... my federal refund staid the same which led me to think that TT was not accounting for it
I am now at lost and not certain I should push the e-file button... which may or may not result in an improper filing.
I will apply the blind tortoise philosophy... wait a little with the hope that someone help me answer the following two questions:
1- Anybody here trying to file form 1116-B with the online TT?
2- Would you suggest I revert to the 70$ desktop version... seems to be quite old fashion but my dad would be proud of me for using a CD?
3- Can someone on this thread positively say that he/she has been able to e-file with form 1116-B and if so which which version of TT was used? Online/Desktop CD/Downloaded .exe
