Deductions & credits

Based on the definition below:

 

The IRS defines passive income as activities where the taxpayer does not materially participate.....

the pension ("Foreign social security") that I am receiving monthly is to be considered passive.

 

Now, I will need to report very small interest and dividend income (from overseas) and no 1099-INT or 1099-DIV forms aren't available.  Data from my brokerage account here in the U.S. can be imported automatically by TT.

 

With regard to the order or sequence in which I need to report INT/DIV income; does  it make a difference?

 

Best!
