This doesn't help if it isn't from an RIC. If I directly own foreign stocks from multiple countries in one brokerage account, then calling them all RIC ("Registered Investment Company") is a lie. RIC is only meant for mutual fund or ETF holdings, not for individually-held stocks.
This is such a ridiculous shortcoming of Turbotax. To ask us to lie to the IRS, and make up dummy 1099's that don't match our real 1099's, and that we calculate from spreadsheets to overcome a huge software bug in their system is ridiculous.
It's not like Turbotax doesn't generate billions of dollars each year that they could use to hire developers to fix this problem. They are just too cheap to spend their CEO's bonus money to help their customers solve these kinds of problems.
