I was separated in 2017 & Married filing Separately. How do I calculate individual amounts of capital loss and foreign tax credit carried forward from 2016 to 2017?
In prior years we filed Married Filing Jointly, and had capital loss carried forward from 2016, and also foreign tax credit carried forward from 2016. (regular and AMT). How do we split these amounts for our 2017 Married filing Separately returns?

The capital loss carry forward and carried forward foreign tax credits should be split 50-50 unless your separation agreement dictates otherwise.
