Does your capture have any frames with selective acknowledgements in them? If not, you won't ever see tcp.options.sack in the Info column - it's a Boolean, but it's only put into the protocol tree if it's true.
(tcp.options.sack_perm won't work even if you *do* have frames with that option, as there's nothing in the TCP dissector that puts it into the protocol tree.)
