    @dmcd043 ,  if you are talking about recognizing pension from a Foreign source , then  depending on the type of pension ( govt. / public  or private  ) and country  the taxability  depends on the tax treaty in effect.

    Generally ,   public source pension ( like Social Security equivalent or pension for govt. employees )  are taxable  only by the  distributor country.   

    So need  info on the type of pension and country involved.  Also are you a US person ?  Are you abroad or here in the US ?

     

    I will circle back once I hear from you  --yes ?
