Official Form 1116 from IRS
IRS Form 1116, Foreign Tax Credit (Individual, Estate, or Trust), lets you claim a credit for income taxes paid or accrued to a foreign country or U.S. possession, so the same income isn't taxed twice. It attaches to Form 1040 (or 1041 for estates and trusts). With JustFill you upload the blank IRS PDF, the AI makes every field fillable, type or dictate your figures, and download it free.
IRS Form 1116 calculates the foreign tax credit — a dollar-for-dollar reduction of your U.S. tax for income taxes you paid or accrued to another country or a U.S. possession on income that is also taxed by the U.S. JustFill makes it fillable in your browser. The form has four parts: Part I figures your taxable income from foreign sources (by country and category, less the deductions allocated to it); Part II lists the foreign taxes paid or accrued, in foreign currency and converted to dollars; Part III applies the credit limitation — your credit can't exceed the share of U.S. tax that the foreign income represents; and Part IV sums the credits from each income category. You file a separate Form 1116 for each category of income (passive, general, GILTI, foreign branch, and others), and the total credit flows to Schedule 3 of your Form 1040.
What each section of Form 1116 asks for. JustFill’s AI will detect these fields automatically when you upload the PDF — review the breakdown below so you know what to enter.
