Deductions & credits

@pderrick542 , the scenario I tried

(a) single, US person , tax home  US current , but 2024  Tax Home Germany.

(b)  Foreign Earned income of 250,000 thus  FEIE + German tax on non-excluded  income.

(c) Tax payer having  Passive  ( Rental )  foreign income,  taxed  by UK

 

The result of this is  two  1116  -- Cpoy-1  , general category for the  Foreign Unexcluded  General category income; Form 1116 -- Copy 2  , Passive Category  Foreign Rental, income and  Taxed  at source.

So I had two  1116, two countries in volved.

 

After passing all the federal checks etc. , I tried printing  -- Print Center, select  All forms, work sheets, computation ; then  used a .pdf printer.

Results were as expected , including two form 1116s  including page 2 of each 1116.

The final tax liability  was as expected/calculated by hand.

 

Given the above, and the diffs. between your  case and mine -- (a) you had TKO and I did not , however  we both have General Category and Passive Category 1116s ;  (b)  you  are on MAC and I am on Windows.   So my ( timid ) conclusion is that  it is probably  MAC/Windows diff.

 

I will flag this for the moderators  for further action.

 

Does this  make sense  or am I missing something else here in ?
