Form 1116 Foreign Tax Credit

[hbiegler]

I continue to get an error on Form 1116. When I perform the error check, it indicates that line 33 should be blank. I have confirmed it is blank and even entered a bogus number into line 34 since it would allow me to. As a result, it indicated two errors with the new error indicating that line 32 should be blank. I am guessing there is a bug in the error checking algorithm associated with Form 1116 Since the tax credit is entered on line 35. Until this issue is resolved, I am unable to E-File. Any help is appreciated

With line 33 being blank and an amount on line 35, it appears you are electing to claim the Foreign Tax Credit without filing a form 1116.  Check line 35 for the statement "Do not file."  If that statement is there, delete the form 1116 as you don't need it; your refund/tax owed should not change.  Retry filing and the error should clear.

I will confirm tonight and will let you know.
