When do I declare my wife's pension income? The program doesn't seem to have a spot for it. Do I report it as miscellaneous income?

Retirement tax questions
I still do not see a prompt to enter my wife's 1099 Rs. It only asked for mine (which I do not have because I am not retired). Turbo Tax just took me onto the next section instead of asking for my wife's 1099 Rs

You enter all 1099R the same place and way. After you start entering a 1099R you pick who it is for.
The easiest way to get to the 1099-R entry screen is to simply search for 1099-R (upper- or lower-case, with or without the dash) in your TurboTax program and then click the "Jump to" link in the search results.
Enter a 1099R under
Federal Taxes on the left side
Wages & Income at the top
Then scroll way down to Retirement Plans and Social Security,
Then IRA, 401(k), Pension Plans (1099R) - click Start or Revisit
If you are filing a Joint return be sure to pick which person it is for.
