How do I report income from a foreign national pension from the countries that doesn't have special treaty ?

[tk94110]

I will start receiving a tiny amount of national pension from Japan where I worked for about ten  years, starting this year (2022). It's much less than $10k per year. 

As far as I know, Japan is not one of the countries that U.S. government allows a special treatment in for income reporting purpose. So I would have to report it but where do I enter this in TurboTax Desktop? Do I also need to make a substitute 1099-R. Will Turbotax Desktop automatically prompt this?

• Click on Wages and Income 
•  
• Click on the less common income

• Enter the foreign pension
