Click on FIND icon in the blue bar-  at the top of your return -  enter Foreign income - click on foreign income in blue -Hit GO -  the page will open for you to enter your Foreign income.   Find  "Other Pension Income" -  Enter your amount.  If you are entering in Canadian dollars do not enter an exchange rate.  If you are entering it in foreign income amounts be sure to enter an exchange rate so the program will calculate into Canadian dollars.   This information is for a fully taxable foreign pension.  If you are reporting US Social Security Benefits you can see there is a section specifically Named - US Social Security Benefits (either  - receiving before 1996 OR your pension started After 1995).
