The question is - were you just following the step-by-step flow or were you populating the appropriate values by navigating to the right screens because of your knowledge of Foreign Tax Credit?
I am not saying you cannot get it right if you know the rules and are able to navigate the workflow correctly.
I am concerned TT's workflow is inadequate for those who are not familiar with all the rules for Foreign Tax Credit. For example, it does not have to provide the option of deducting foreign tax as an itemized deduction if standard deduction is already chosen. Plus it doesn't warn the user that Foreign tax has exceeded $600 - therefore the user MUST provide the values manually to populate Form 1116. Ideally it should automatically populate Form 1116 and ask the user to verify the values. That would help a novice user. Otherwise mistakes are bound to occur.
