What are the implications for a US citizen on Medicare, Medicaid, and SSI when moving to Thailand as an expat?

Toon **********

TL;DR: NO

No, your free health insurance isn’t accepted here, and neither is your welfare assistance. Shocking, I know. Retirees who actually contributed to social security their entire lives? They get their benefits. Freeloaders on disability handouts? Not so much.

Toon **********

TL:DR

She's retirement age but doesn't have funds to retire. She needs to work but doesn't want to teach and wants your time/energy to find her an alternative so she can move to Thailand.

Your smooth sell is corny. No, he doesn't need your husband or any overpriced agent to handle a simple Visa change. He has the required amount in his account and once it's seasoned the process is painless although it does take patience at immigration.
