Foreign Tax Credit.
Explanation: The foreign tax credit (Form 1116) lets U.S. taxpayers offset U.S. tax on foreign-source income by the foreign income taxes paid or withheld, preventing double taxation. The other choices are incorrect: the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion applies to wages earned abroad, the AMT credit relates to prior-year alternative minimum tax, and the Saver's Credit is for retirement contributions.
