File a US Tax Return: You must file a US tax return and the Foreign Tax Credit must be claimed on IRS Form 1116, “Foreign Tax Credit (Individual, Estate, or Trust).” The carryover must also be shown on this form.
To make the election, just enter on the foreign tax credit line of your tax return (for example, Schedule 3 (Form 1040), Part I, line 1) the smaller of (a) your total foreign tax, or (b) your regular tax. See the instructions for line 20, later, for how to figure your regular tax.
Go to the Credits > Credits Summary worksheet. Line 22 - Foreign tax credit input the amount.
Different categories of income can require a separate Form 1116. Classify your foreign income by category, and complete a separate Form 1116 as required. Attach Form 1116 to your tax return. If a foreign tax redetermination occurs, you must file Form 1040-X to notify the IRS of the change to avoid penalties.
