Deductions & credits

Yes, it sounds like you understand it, you won't include the 1099-INT you already entered in the foreign tax credit (FTC).   And as Dave mentioned above, foreign tax carryovers can be carried back one year or carried forward for the next ten years.  If you are unable to take advantage of them by offsetting these with foreign income, they remain until they drop off.
