Deductions & credits

If you are trying to take the Foreign Tax Credit,

 

1.  Be sure your Foreign Income is entered.

2.  Scroll down to the section under Income & Expenses that says Foreign Earned Income Exclusion and Select Edit/Add

3.  Go through the On Screen Prompts until you get to the screen that asks you "Whose Foreign Income Would you Like to Try and Exclude," choose Neither of Us (for Joint Returns) and Continue.  TurboTax will take you back to the Income & Expenses Summary Screen.

4.  Go to the Foreign Tax Credit section under Deductions & Credits.  You should now be able to enter the Foreign Taxes Paid.

 

If you continue to have this issue after following these steps please let us know.
