Deductions & credits

Dear Mr. pk:

 

Do I need to enter the capital gains (as usual per above screen shot sequence - similar to selling any US stock or bond with purchase price, selling price, net proceeds....etc., )  and then enter the taxes paid for that transaction per your instruction below?

 

(a) Under  Deductions and Credits tab, choose  " I will choose what I work ... ".

(b) From drop down  list of credits and deductions, near the end  you will Foreign Tax credit. 

(c) Click this  " Edit/ Visit ".   

(d) Then in the following screens  you will need to enter the details for form 1116 -- Foreign Source  Income ,  Source Country, amount paid etc. etc.   

 

Also, did you mean "Passive category" to include interest income, dividend income, bond proceeds, capital gains...etc.,

 

Regards,

Giri
