Is the foreign tax credit getting used on the 2021 return?

If it's not, then print off the credit carryforward info, delete the form 1116 and any related info to get rid of the error message, then file the return.  Then next year enter the credit carryforward info when you do the 2022 return.

Probably not the technically correct answer, but I've come to realize that compliance (getting returns filed) is more important than perfection (everything is technically correct).
