International Social Security Agreements

Plenty of Americans work in foreign countries, and many other foreign nationals work in the United States as well. People in any of these two situations could be subject to dual payroll taxation: having to pay into two countries’ retirement systems from the same wages. To minimize the risk, Social Security decided to negotiate agreements with 30 countries that have comparable programs for their retirees.

These pacts usually require workers to pay payroll taxes to only one country’s retirement system at a time. They also let workers covered by the agreements pool the credits they already earned from employment in more than just one country to make sure they qualify for retirement benefits in the country where they claim them.

      You are right. Contacted them and the spiel was about signing up for new insurance.

      If you live within 20 miles of any large city there are many food banks that can be found online. As well, if you do not, then many churches give away food once a month to those in need. You can find these online or even using your smartphone, if you have one. Simply enter into the query “local food banks” or “churches giving away food monthly”.
      As for utilities, the Salvation Army and Catholic Charities, again online can be found that offer help.
      Also, if you are in relatively good health, you can hire yourself out as a companion for other elderly people living alone by placing an ad online or in a local newspaper. Many families are looking for mature trustworthy people that may assist and be a companion to their elderly parent or grandparent that lives alone. You will need some references from friends or past employers or former co-workers that can vouch for your character, however.
