Question

How do I enter foreign tax credit from form T2209?

I sold US property and the IRS withheld 15%. I could not find T2209 so I manually printed it. How do enter the amount from line on T1 general line 40500 to avoid double taxation?

How do I claim foreign tax credits?

Line 40500:

You may be able to claim the federal foreign tax credit for foreign income or profit taxes that you paid on income you received from outside Canada and reported on your Canadian tax return. Tax treaties with other countries may affect whether you are eligible for this credit.

Foreign income and foreign taxes must be converted to Canadian dollars
