Deductions & credits

I assume you are from India or in India.

Please confirm both 1099-INT and 1099-B or any informational returns don't apply to India correct?

Because neither banks or brokers don't provide such returns to IRS or to their clients.

 

Further I added Interest and capital gains from India as other reportable income under miscellaneous income category.

But when I see deduction/credit section - it does not show foreign tax credit ..so I assume unless you enter income under interest and investment income turbotax will not calculate foreign tax credit correct?

 

So how to solve this issue so that I can still file tax return with foreign income(no US income at all) and take tax credit ?

FYI - total foreign income is less than standard deduction so technically not owing anything to IRS but paid tax to India so can I use that tax credit to future years ?
