Deductions & credits

@mbcohen139  if you are using the desktop version ( Windows & downloaded / CD ) then  you can  easily go into  (a)  Deductions and Credit and  choose  Foreign Tax Credit -- should  open a box showing  the first 1116 , you can then add another and choose the correct category.   OR  (b) go to forms mode,   ( top right ribbon area, showing the forms mode ) and then when all the forms are shown on the left pane,  there is a heading saying search / add a form --  in the text box there   enter form 1116 and then add.  If you run into trouble let me know  -- I will give you the exact screens  ( I am doing this from memory ).

 

 I hope  you recognize that  all your US sourced  income that are being resourced by treaty  come under one heading / one form 1116 -- you do not separate  pension / interest/ dividend etc. into different forms.   

Also note that  you are exempt from  the requirement  of filing a form 8833 because you are resourcing only based on "double Taxation" clause of a tax treaty.

 

Is there more I can do for you ?
