Why are all foreign sourced dividend reported by the program on form 1116 line 1a as a negative number to begin with?  This is causing all the foreign tax paid (foreign tax credit) being unused and carried over to next year.

What did you enter for total foreign dividend income and for qualified foreign dividend income?

 Did you actually enter the dividend, as well as the amount of foreign? What % did you use?
