Deductions & credits

Thomas, thanks for answering. My question was about entering foreign taxes withheld on Foreign Capital Gains.

There is no provision for assigning foreign taxes on 1099 B questionnaire, but as you pointed out there is for 1099-Int and 1099-Div. Are you suggesting I create a Dummy entry on 1099-Int and enter the Net foreign tax paid (current withholding-any refund from last year) and account for it this way?

 

Will it go to proper place in form 1116 if I do this. Note the dummy entry will not have an interest specified. Wouldn't that look like an anomaly to the software or IRS?

 

Thanks for clarifying.
