@Bob-777 , hello, I saw your question recently but it was more than three weeks old and so assumed that you did not need help anymore. Let me look into this and will be back shrotly.
What I understand is that (a) you have dividends with foreign taxes paid from three sources ; (b) some is reported as qualified ; (c) you report these i.e. two RICs, one foreign but with qualified divs ; (c) the resulting 1116 does not look right and does not match the 1099-div.
Please can you confirm -- 1. Box 1(a) shows total dividend; 1(b) shows qualified dividends . 2. Box 7 shows the total foreign taxes paid; 3. Box 8 shows the foreign countries where foreign taxes were paid. 4. Do you have information on the foreign incoke associated with these foreign taxes -- either direct info from broker or per the information sheets when you are using broker statement -- for Mutual funds often you will see this a percentage of investment / income total.
Also note that mostly foreign entities declaring dividends are NOT qualified dividends .
Please answer my questions while I look at your issue
