Where is the error when electronic filing fails? The email says "Once you've opened your return in TurboTax, the details about what needs updating will be displayed."

Under "What Happened" it says: "/Return/ReturnData/IRS1116/ForeignTaxCreditSource/USTaxWithheldOnDividendAmt - Data in the return is missing or invalid." But Form 1116 is very complicated, and there is no explanation in TurboTax what is wrong with the form.

this is a public forum. we can't see your return so we really  can't be sure of the issue

suggestions

1) if you used "various" for date paid or accrued try 12/31/2020

2) from another user

I'm using TT Online. My solution was to delete my 1116 using these instructions, then request the 1116  interview again: 

- Federal / Deductions and Credits / Estimates and Other Taxes Paid / Foreign Tax Credit / Revisit.

3) if your FTC is less than $300 single or $600 married filing jointly try the simplified method - no 1116 required

delete the 1116 see link above

on 1099-div only enter the amount of FTC in box 7 and use various for the country. don't use any other box for lines 7 or 8

4) contact support
