o If I have a US corp, I can have a foreign DRE b/c I made a CTB election, treated
as though doesn’t exist- any income that they earn, treated as they earned it, any
tax paid, treated as though they paid the tax
▪ This tax= 901 credit, as though the US corp paid tax, DRE doesn’t exist=
arm of US company
▪ US company can pay foreign tax directly, but also if their foreign
disregarded entity or their branch pays tax, then that’s also creditable

i.e. withholding tax, then doesn’t necessarily go to branch
basket, could be passive basket, general basket
