Is tax paid on US SS Benefits eligible for tax credit?

In TurboTax online I have entered my wife's SS Benefits and taxes paid, however, they do not appear in the Foreign Taxes Summary (credits) section like the pension withdrawal slip information does for me. Is it a program glitch or is a tax rule?

If you are trying to file a US tax return please go to TurboTax.com

 

If you are trying to file a Canadian tax return, please advise.
