Generally, when a 1099-DIV is sent out, they usually send an accompanying statement that tell you for certain things, such as US Govt Interest, Foreign Sourced Income, etc., etc.
What you have to do is find where they say that...they usually express it as a percentage. For example, they might say 15% of the amount in box 1a is foreign sourced income.
You will have to calculate that amount
