Recent legislation (P.L. 119-21) adds new section 151(d)(5)(C), which generally provides a $6,000 deduction for the taxpayer and (in the case of a joint return) the taxpayer’s spouse, if they have reached age 65 before the close of the tax year. This deduction is reported on Schedule 1-A (Form 1040), line 37, and needs to be removed from taxable income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit limitation. This deduction is in effect for tax years 2025 through 2028. See the Instructions for Form 1116.\u003Cbr>P. L. 119-21 also adds new section 960(d)(4), which disallows a credit under section 901 for 10% of any foreign income taxes paid or accrued (or deemed paid under section 960(b)(1)) with respect to any amount excluded from gross income under section 959(a) by reason of an inclusion in gross income under section 951A(a) . Section 960(d)(4) applies to foreign income taxes paid or accrued (or deemed paid under section 960(b)(1)) with respect to any amount excluded from gross income under section 959(a) by reason of an inclusion in gross income under section 951A(a) after June 28, 2025. |\n\nReminders  \nFinal foreign tax credit regulations. Final foreign tax credit regulations were published January 4, 2022. The regulations made changes to the rules relating to the creditability of foreign taxes under Internal Revenue Code sections 901 and 903, the applicable period for claiming a credit or deduction for foreign taxes, and the election to claim a provisional credit for contested foreign taxes. A Notice was subsequently released on July 21, 2023, allowing taxpayers to apply prior rules in place of certain rules provided in the regulations. The rules described in this Notice were modified in part by a Notice released on December 11, 2023, to address their application to partnerships and their partners and to extend the relief period until further notice.
