If you work outside the United States, different rules may apply in determining if you can get your benefit checks. Most people who are neither United States residents nor United States citizens will have 25.5 percent of their benefits withheld for federal income tax.

For more information about receiving benefits abroad, we recommend you read: Your Payments While You Are Outside the United States and International Agreements, Payments Outside the United States, and Social Security in Other Countries. [/color][/i]


Really, you got to hand it to the USS Octopus. 22.5% of your SS benefit payments go back in the kiddie. Double taxation?

But wait! There's more! It's "Your Payments While You Are Outside the United States and International Agreements, Payments Outside the United States, and Social Security in Other Countries" publication.

Thanks Px.

Always happy to reflect on our friends running the Evil Empire.

Let me tell you
How it will be.
There's one for you,
Nineteen for me,

'Cause I'm the taxman.
Yeah, I'm the taxman.
