What are the best practices for managing Social Security payments while living in Thailand?

@Marty ********

I know that. What I was saying if he lives overseas and is a citizen he would need to submit that form but only if they know he is overseas. Or maybe I am missing something? Going by what I have heard.

not true. If you told Social Security you are moving overseas every year you have to verify with them that you are still alive. They have a form that you send to them for this.

@Robert ************

I know what it is but why not check the Website first and if you have questions then ask. That is what I did. I checked the Embassy website in the US, googled some info then asked for additional information in the forum. I apologize for being rude at the end.

it's common sense to check the Embassy website where you can get the information you need. If you cannot "navigate" your way to the website maybe someone shouldn't be traveling.
