I complete my fed tax return and need to complete my Oregon return but it does not include my wife's pension income or deduction for being federal retiree.

    You can only deduct the benefits pair to your spouse for the federal service before October 1, 1991.  You can go to the Oregon state section and look for the "Her's the income that Oregon handles differently" page.  Start or revisit the IRA and Pension Distributions and indicate "We received federal pension income for federal service before October 1, 1991".

     

    You will then be able to indicate the exclusion.
