Be sure that you  are eligible for the Foreign tax credit.

 

Taxes paid to other countries qualify for the foreign tax credit when:

• They were levied on your income.
• You were legally obliged to pay them.
• You did pay them.
• You did not gain from paying them, and
• The United States has not sanctioned the country.

Eligible taxes include income tax you paid to local and provincial governments. They do not include sales, value-added, real estate or luxury taxes paid to a foreign government.
