Foreign Tax Credit

I am US citizen retired and I live in Portugal (full time resident).  My income is my US Social Security and a small amount of dividends and interest.  I am required here to pay a 10% tax only on my US Social Security income (Approx. $3000). I have been told that I can deduct the tax that I pay here from my US Taxes (There is a tax treaty).  I have only seen how to deduct foreign taxes paid on foreign income.  I am using the CD download of Turbotax Deluxe.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks
