Deductions & credits

It depends. If you are a US citizen and have income from Colombia where you did pay income tax on that income, you can include the foreign tax credit in your tax return. Use the link below to take you step-by-step to enter your credit.

The foreign tax credit can be carried back one year or carried forward up to 10 years so you want to keep track of your credits and which year is used. See Topic no. 856, Foreign tax credit.
