Foreign tax credit from 2020 carried forward to 2021. Where is it entered in 2021?

Client had 2020 taxes prepared by someone else who shows foreign tax credit (from foreign dividends-passive) carried forward to  2021. Where do I enter this on the 2021 tax return (since I would prefer not to enter everything from client's 2020 form 1040? 

I don't even see where this would show up on the 2020 form 1116. (I've never had a client who couldn't use his foreign tax credits.)

TIA
