Full question: Hi Martha. I’m 70 live in SC and collect monthly SSA benefits. Is there a list of countries I can move to and continue to receive my monthly benefit? Does it matter whether I become a citizen of that country?

Hi there,

If you are planning to live outside the United States, the SSA has an online tool for Payments Outside the US. This tool will help you find out if your payments will continue as long as you are eligible, stop after six consecutive calendar months, or if certain country specific restrictions apply.

Best of luck,
Martha
