Turbotax automatically accounts for this. You should enter the $200k in the foreign income section, claim the FEIE. When you go to the foreign tax credit area later, you should NOT enter any additional income. It should be a zero or a blank. Turbotax automatically carries over the remaining 93k as income from the form 2555 that is filed as a result of trying to claim the FEIE. If you enter it again here, you may see a false hope as your taxes decline - but you will later see that it thinks you paid your taxes against 293k in foreign income rather than 200k, falsely allowing you to bring in more of your foreign tax as credit.
You may find as I have that it is more tax beneficial to not to exclude any income in the foreign income section (and thus, no form 2555 is created), and instead claim it all as FTC. In this case, you need to entire your full FTC in the foreign tax credit area. Make sure you also try the 'Itemized' deduction, even if turbotax recommends the standard deduction.
I have laid out, step by step what I was doing earlier in this thread. I have learned that it was correct. If @SusanY1 has a different point of view, be sure to follow her advice as it has been flawless.
