Deductions & credits

Well I don't rightly remember what I did. I know I looked at the form and maybe tried going through it. It is complicated. But I probably just deleted F1116 as it was not relevant and it is not one of the forms that appears in the saved PDF data of all forms I sent. The only reason you need the form is if you exceed the minimum for reporting on the form or have excess foreign tax credits which you can roll over to the following year.

 

Also the amount should appear in the 1099-DIV info from the firm that was handling your finances. That probably reproduces it to Schedule 3. So if you cannot enter it on Schedule 3, make sure it is part of the the amounts entered on the 1099-DIV  form.

 

Other than that you need some one more expert to give you some help.
