It says clearly: "Make sure you thoroughly understand how to determine exclusions... before you make any entries here". However, in the review phase, it forced me to enter a value on "Foreign Tax Credit Computation Worksheet" field 12a 1 and 2 (which is the answer to the above screen).
If I enter in ANYTHING, my taxes multiply by 10X. This field is for reduction in my foreign taxes, which I don't have, so I don't even need this portion. However, without it, Turbo tax refuses to let me file.
Bear in mind, that this is a stupid WORKSHEET made by Intuit themselves, NOT the actual Form 1116 that we have to send to the IRS.
Intuit is refusing to let me file because their own worksheet has a bug from their own screen's input.
I need Intuit devs to go in and fix this stupid bug to let me efile ASAP, but there is literally no way I can get into contact with a human being, living overseas as I am.
