Each Form 1116 is prepared in two versions: one for Regular Tax and another for the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT), which are tied to Form 6251. The AMT calculation is automatically performed in the background to ensure you don’t claim excess credits or deductions that might trigger additional tax liability.
If you have both General Income (e.g., wages, salaries, or self-employment income) and Passive Income (e.g., dividends, interest, or rental income), you will have a separate Form 1116 for each income category, each with Regular Tax and AMT versions. This results in multiple Form 1116s being included in your tax return.
Rest assured, we track and manage your Foreign Tax Credits (FTCs) to maximize your tax benefits as part of our standard tax package.
