    I cashed in a private personal pension from the UK and can't figure out which line it goes on form 1040. They do not send 1099r's

    1. Log into your account
    2. Select Wages and income
    3. Less Common income
    4. Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099>start
    5. Scroll to the bottom of the page to Other Reportable Income
    6. Other taxable income, answer yes
    7. Then give a brief description of the income and the amount listed. In this case, British Private pension adn then the amount.
