Receiving Social Security Benefits As An Expat Abroad

In today's stream, I have the pleasure of interviewing Khun Tom, a seasoned expat with an incredible 20-year journey living abroad, fondly referred to as the "uni-brow." What's particularly intriguing about this episode is Tom's recent decision to apply for Social Security benefits. As I approach my own eligibility for Social Security, which is just a little over a year away, I can't help but be curious about the process and its implications. Tom's experience living in Thailand and unique insights promises an interesting discussion, delving into a multitude of captivating questions surrounding Social Security, making it a topic of immediate relevance and interest for our live broadcast.

For expats living abroad, collecting Social Security benefits adds an extra layer of complexity to retirement planning. While it's generally possible to receive these benefits overseas, understanding the eligibility criteria and any relevant Totalization Agreements between the U.S. and the host country is crucial. Expats should also be aware of potential tax implications and the importance of maintaining communication with the Social Security Administration to ensure a smooth process while residing in another country.
