Got this diagnostics message from PTO: Form 1116 Schedule B, Foreign Tax Carryover Reconcilliation Schedule must be attached as a PDF for electronic filing purposes. US - Ref #56669

Does PTO generate Form 1116 Schedule B, Foreign Tax Carryover Reconcilliation Schedule?

Thank you for your time.

https://proconnect.intuit.com/tax-online/forms-finder/  says it was released last week.

I believe input for carryover onto Sch B is just below the input for 1116. I have not tested that it works.

Form 1116 Schedule B was released in its "final form" yesterday, 2/22/22, but I'm still seeing this critical diagnostic.

Complete the section for Foreign Tax Credit Carryover (& same for AMT) for the years that the carryovers are from - FOR EACH category of income. That will create the Sch B & attach if needed.

These are already populated because we have been the tax preparer using ProConnect for those years. This is a new critical diagnostic this year because I'm pretty sure ProConnect has yet to put a software fix in place. The software is generating the Schedule B to the Form 1116 but simultaneously telling me that I have to attach a PDF.

I checked for updates and am on the most current version.  Yet, I see no input for 1116 Schedule B and a partial print to PDF says form is not available for this release.  Thoughts?

When I clicked on an error message for 1116 Schedule B - just got a message saying that it will be released with an update - but no date. So, not sure what's going on. Not sure whether to just file with an attachment - but if so, not sure it will go through successfully.

I tried that and e-file still rejected.  I think I just wait to see if today's update rolls out to me sometime today.  I noted in the form release date tool, ProConnect anticipates March 8th as final version date.  May have to just sit tight for that, as well.  I have all these returns piled up and ready to file.  It's just a little frustrating.  Thanks for your reply.

I tried and failed.  I attached Form 1116 Schedule B PDF attachment and unchecked the e-file diagnostic (a first for me) and e-filed the return.  It was rejected.

 Error F1116-004-02: If Form 1116, 'Form1116ScheduleB' must be attached to 'ForeignTaxCrCarrybackOrOverAmt' and 'ForeignlncmSection951Alnd' must not be checked.

A PDF attachment file is required to file this return electronically. The functionality of attaching the PDF attachment file "Form1116ScheduleB" is not currently available.

The functionality will be added in the future release. Please check form availability and wait until Schedule B (Form 1116) is in the product.

You need to override the 2021 and 2022 carryover on the form 1116 worksheet and then override the carryover line in the calculation and input correct number. That will work. You need to wait until 3/31 update to be able to Efile.

Update: Form 1116 Sch B, Foreign Tax Carryover Reconciliation Schedule is now estimated to be ready for print on 3/10.

Although Form 1116 Sch B is not supported for e-file, you will be able to E-File returns with the 1116 Schedule B attached as a PDF, once that form is finalized.

For more information, please see our ProSeries Release dates page.

ProSeries shows no errors ... is it now possible to also efile returns? Has the 1116 Schedule B issue been fully resolved?

I tried e-filing two with the updates and both were rejected.
