    I was told to use Canadian Registered Pension Income which comes with 2 inputs.  One is Total Distribution. 

    I was told that you put the Gross Amount for Total and then the delta of the Gross - Taxes Withheld to get the Taxable Part of Distribution.

     

    this is the part giving me heartache as it is not clear that if I paid Canadian taxes- do I also have to pay US taxes or is is considered double taxation?

     

    unfortunately I think the way described to me by the Tax Advisor from TT is correct.

    I found this:

    https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/retirement/discussion/reporting-canadian-rrsp-withdrawl-on-us-taxes/00/2443370/page/3

     

    Total Distribution and Taxable part should be the same amount. Then deduct the 25% withholding in the Foreign Tax Credits.

     

    Good luck!

    Did you get that to work?  Finding and adding the foreign tax credit?
