Fed Form 1116 Schedule B - I have been told by Lacerte that you will not be generating this form, even though in 2021, it is a required attachment when there is an unused Foreign Tax Credit Carryforward.
To be kind this is unprofessional. I am not paying Lacerte $5,500 to either manually or use other software to attach a required form to a tax return so I can e-file it. I may have to look to another software vendor in the future.
I have been on the phone with Lacerte over an hour to get the news that is prompting my comments. I am very unhappy. If I ran my accounting practice like this, I would not have an accounting practice.
Years ago, I had a number of interactions with Larry Lacerte. He would never let this sort of thing happen.
