For some reason, I am unable to navigate to a relevant foreign tax credit entry area through the web interface that will feed into Form 1116.

When you said "the web interface," pk and I both understood that to mean TurboTax Online. But you are working on a U.S. tax return for 2022, to report the sale of the flat and TDS paid in 2022. You cannot prepare a 2022 tax return with TurboTax Online. TurboTax Online is only for the current tax year, which is now 2023. To prepare a 2022 tax return you have to use the CD/Download Desktop TurboTax software for 2022.


To prepare Form 1116 in the CD/Download Desktop TurboTax software, go to Federal Taxes > Deductions & Credits. Scroll down to the section "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid." Click the Start button for Foreign Taxes. In my opinion the user interface in the CD/Download Desktop software is much simpler, clearer, and easier to navigate than TurboTax Online.
