Yes, it's taxed.  The Pension income will be entered in the Retirement Plans and Social Security section.  Select the first option 1099-R, IRAs, 401(k), early withdrawals.  If you did not receive a 1099-R, then create a Substitute 1099-R when prompted.

Remember to report all income in U.S. Dollars.
