Deductions & credits

Was the tax zero on your original 2016 1040?  If so you would not receive a refund, but only a carryforward of the foreign tax credit.

 

Did you enter your your 1099-R forms in the foreign tax credit section for Income Resourced by Treaty?  I went in and entered income and foreign tax there and it transferred to the tax return.
