    No, you don't need to consider it further. Just enter your 1099-DIV/INT/B.  If asked for a country where foreign tax was paid, use "various".

    What is your question?

    Sorry for the blank screen earlier.  

    Turbo Tax is not clear to me regarding how to handle foreign source income.  I have  2 mutual funds  and 4 stocks  purchased and held in an American brokerage company.  These are not in foreign banks or in trusts. 

    Turbo Tax tries to define foreign assets and it appears that I am not subject to define my assets as foreign but further  questions about the subject confuse the issue. The income from these investments total about $3,464 and my 1099-div shows a foreign tax paid of $248.

    Do I have to consider this foreign income further?
