Foreign Tax Credit Country

[mtiede]

I am trying the Foreign Tax Credit.  The interview is asking for Country.  One of the brokers just says "Other Country".  What should I select from the drop down menu?  "Various"?  Something else?

Another broker just says "foreign tax paid" and doesn't list a country.  It just has the "Security Description" such as "ISHS CORE MSCI EAFE ETF"?  What do I put for that?

Yes, list the country(s) as "various" in the dropdown selection. Ignore the "security descriptions" as this information isn't needed to compute the Foreign Tax Credit.
