You have to read the US/UK tax treaty to see how it applies to this
type of income

The Canadian/US tax treaty likely will have different provisions than
the US/UK tax treaty
So don't necessarily expect the same treatment

Canadian CPP & OAS is a result of the Social Security Treaty, not the
Canadian-US Tax Convention. There may be a UK-US Social Security
Treaty separate from the UK-US Tax Convention that you also need to
locate and read in your case.

Hi,

We are US permanent residents. My wife just started getting some UK
state pension benefits. This is something every Britton gets as a
senior. Is this treated the same way as social security benefits for
tax purposes?

I know that Canada CPP and OAS benefits are treated the same way as SS
income if you reside in US.
