Hi NCPerson.
The link the WE8Ben is confusing, the instructions say to use this form, but then the actual form says to use a W9 & there's no place to properly report it there.
As for the Tax Treaty link Article 17, section 1, b, this would sugest that if a UK pension is considered nontaxable in the UK then the UK-US Tax Treaty would mean it wasn't taxed in the US. However.....this is only what I THINK it means, I've not found anything that actually states it clearly & I've still no clear idea of where to report it & how to avoid paying taxes I'm not required to pay.
