You will enter your Japanese pension in the same spot you enter a Pension from a US based company. However, when asked what state it is for, you will select foreign. When you select foreign, you will be given a list of countries to choose from. Select Japan on this address screen.

To get to this location click the following:

Federal
Income
Scroll down click show more next to Retirement Plans and Social Security
Start next to IRA, 401k, Pension Plan Withdrawals (1099-R)
Continue through until you are asked to Enter your 1099-s providers info

We were not asked to enter 1099-s provider information. There’s no place to enter country, etc that you mention.

You can enter the Japanese pension under Miscellaneous income:

Open or continue your return
Click on Show more next to Less Common Income under Income & Expenses section
Click Start/Revisit next to Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 1099-C
Click on Start/Revisit next to Other reportable income
On the next screen that says Any Other Taxable Income?, select Yes and Continue
On the next screen, enter "Japanese Pension" as the Description and enter the amount
Continue and Done.
