Thanks so much for your reply.
I think the issue is I'm entering the income from the sale of the property incorrectly.
When I go to enter the Foreign Tax Credit, this is what I do/get:
1) Go to Foreign Tax Credit section: It says :"We’ll check if you’re eligible for the Foreign Tax Credit"
Continue
2) Before we begin, do you have any income left to enter?
"Yes I'm finished" and Continue
3) It says "Looks like the Foreign Tax Credit doesn't apply this year" and I can't go on...
On the Wages and Income section, I had entered the land sale in the "Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other" section.
1) Click on this section
2) Select "Other (land, second homes, personal items", then Continue.
3) Enter broker name in India for land sale. Continue.
4) Fill out information concerning sale price, that I inherited it, basis, etc. Continue.
5) I check that there are no other sales expenses (since the capital gains tax paid in India is not a sales expense). Continue
I don't see anywhere here to identify that the land was sold outside the USA, and I think this is the issue. Is there someplace else I should be recording this income, to tell turbotax that this is a *foreign* sale of land?
There is a section for Foreign Earned Income, but that appears to only be for wages and such, not for sales.
So I think my problem is on the income side of things.
Thanks much!
