Turbo tax desktop not generating form 1116 to report Foreign tax credit carryover for general category
Hi,
I have general category foreign tax credit carryovers from 2022, 2023, and 2024, but I have no general category foreign-source income in 2025. I entered the carryover amounts, but TurboTax is not generating Form 1116 for the general category.
When I tested by entering $1 of general category income, Form 1116 was generated correctly. However, I do not actually have any general category income for 2025 and still need to report the carryovers from the past three years.
Could you please advise how to properly report this so the carryovers are retained without having to enter dummy income?
Note: I do have passive category income and carryovers, and TurboTax is generating Form 1116 for the passive category correctly.
Thank you!
