Don't try to use a Substitute 1099-R to report your Foreign Pension Income. You won't be able to Efile without an EIN, which you don't have.
Report it as Other Taxable Income, then claim the Foreign Tax Credit.
- select Federal
- select Wages and Income
- Scroll down to last section -Less Common Income -select Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C- Start
- Next screen, scroll down to Other Reportable Income- Start
- Enter description (foreign pension) and amount as Other Taxable Income
In the Foreign Tax Credit section, there are five kinds of income to associate your tax paid with. Choose 'passive category' or 'general category' as the income type you are claiming the credit for.
Here's more info on Claiming the Foreign Tax Credit.
