Retirement tax questions

You need to go to the Estimates and Other Taxes paid section in the Deductions and Credits area of TurboTax, then choose Foreign Taxes to assign your foreign income to a country and enter the tax paid. Indicate that you have already entered your 1099 forms with foreign taxes paid. Choose the foreign tax credit option in place of the deduction. Choose the passive income option.
