(a)U.S. interest limitation carryforward of $31.8 million has an unlimited carryforward and is not subject to a valuation allowance. In addition, foreign interest limitation and other tax carryforwards of $17.0 million have an unlimited carryforward and are subject to a full valuation allowance.
(b)U.S. foreign tax credits of $55.8 million expire in various years between 2024 and 2032 and other remaining credits of $6.0 million have various expiration periods. The U.S. foreign tax credits and other credits have a valuation allowance of $45.3 million.
Summary of Valuation Allowance Based on our analysis of positive and negative evidence including historical and expected future taxable earnings, and a consideration of available tax-planning strategies, we believe it is more-likely-than-not that we will realize the benefit of the existing deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, at December 31, 2023.

(a)Changes in judgment about valuation allowances are based on a recognition threshold of “more-likely-than-not” of realizing beginning-of-year balances of deferred tax assets. Amounts are recognized in income from continuing operations. The 2022 change in judgment includes the impact of the U.S. final foreign tax credit regulations. We determined a significant amount of the post-2021 foreign withholding taxes will now be ineligible for U.S. foreign income tax credit treatment and therefore our U.S. operations will no longer annually be generating new foreign tax credits in excess of its annual foreign tax credit utilization limit. As a result, we expected to be able to utilize a substantial amount of our foreign tax credit and general business tax credit carryforwards to offset future tax prior to their expiration. The 2023 change in judgment includes the impact of Internal Revenue Notices which provide relief for foreign taxes paid in any taxable year beginning on or after December 28, 2021, and ending before the date that a notice or other guidance withdrawing or modifying the temporary relief is issued (or any later date specified in such notice or other guidance). We determined a significant amount of the post-2021 foreign withholding taxes will now be eligible for U.S. foreign income tax credit treatment and therefore our U.S. operations will annually be generating new foreign tax credits which should be creditable in the year generated. As a result, we no longer expect to be able to utilize a substantial amount of our foreign tax credit carryforwards to offset the future tax prior to their expiration.
Net Operating Losses The tax benefit of net operating loss carryforwards, before valuation allowances, as of December 31, 2023, was $57.2 million, and expires as follows:
