Ah, now that I re-read your question, I see that you want to forego the election for §911 but take a foreign tax credit instead.  Yes, you can do that but your client would be deemed to have revoked the election.  A full credit can then be claimed.  This could be beneficial for high-tax jurisdictions.

How did you enter the compensation and the sourcing for F.1116?  What outcome do you see now in the program?
