Investors and rental owners

You really did not understand or answer the question.

 

I have filled in a T4 which I get from my employer in Canada. I do however pay foreign income tax on this income which I want to claim on my tax return. When I go into the Foreign Income worksheet, I need to put in an income so that this amount then goes into the T2209 to allow me to claim the tax paid. This amount is then added to my T4 income and results in my income being double what it actually is. Then I have to over ride it and then I can no long e file.

 

Is there a way to claim the foreign tax credit without having to over ride my income. (I don't need a lecture about whether or not the income or tax paid is required to be filed thanks)
