Deductions & credits

Thanks for your responses!

 

If I have not made any claim for FTC in last year's tax return, I can skip adding to the tax refund I received on that tax credit in a foreign country, right? My Tax credit is the same as tax refund. This year as well I can skip claiming the tax credit and then skip tax refund which I will receive in the next tax year. If doing that is fine, I would stick to that as that makes filling tax forms much simpler.

I am a US person for tax purposes last few  years.
