@luisemalloy550 , while agreeing with my colleague @MarilynG1 on where and how to get credit for foreign taxes paid for the current tax year, I would like to point out that you have already entered all your US income on your US return in the appropriate boxes / line on form 1040.
Now when you go Foreign tax credit ( under the "Deductions and Credit tab", the income that is resourced by treaty would generally be equal to that being taxed by both tax administrations ( US and Portugal ) and tax credit you are seeking would be the amount you paid to US ( at most ). -- the form 1116 assures that is the case ( even though you may put in the actual amount paid to a foreign tax authority).
Doesa this make sense ?
If this has satisfied your query, please consider as accepting the answer and thereby the thread would be closed . You can still add to this and will be answered.
IIs there more I can do for you ?
