Software provide drop down with "United Kingdom" on form 1116, but "United Kingdom (Northern Ireland, England, Scotland & Wales) on form 1099-DIV. Won't let me e-file due to the mismatch.

It still hasn't been updated as of 4/29. I had to use "Various" both on the foreign interest "1099" and on the Form 1116 worksheet to move on to filing. However, I did include an explanation statement to note the problem and identify the actual country.
