Does Receiving A QPP Pension Qualify As Canadian Sourced Income?

I understand that a charitable donation to a charity in Canada is tax deductible on the U.S. 1040 tax return if there is any Canadian sourced income. Does receiving a QPP pension qualify as Canadian sourced income? The QPP income gets lumped in with U.S. Social Security income so not sure if it is identified on the form.

Hi,

I'm sorry, but I'm unable to answer your question. My expertise is limited to Social Security benefits, not tax regulations.

Best, Jerry
