I need to calculate foreign source qualified dividends. I have the 1099 supllemental information, which provides me with the "Fgn Source Inc Qual" for a specific mutual fund. Do I multiply that by the (a) Total Dividends and Distributions for that fund, (b) the (manually calculated) sum of the Qualified dividends for that fund? or (c) the foreign source income total (which was calculated this way: Total Dividends and Distributions for that fund x "Fgn Source Inc Tot" in the Supplemental information.

Because AI and have seen in other non-TurboTax posts to multiply it by (a) but that number can exceed the sum of the qualified dividends.
