I haven't received an SSA-7162 yet despite Manila and SSA having my address on file. This also happened last year as well although Manila said SSA had mailed it to me. In June I wrote to FBU Manila and they told me to wait until the end of September. Nothing arrived yet. So, I emailed them yesterday and surprisingly this morning they replied, giving me an SSA-7162 to print out and mail to Wilkes-Barre. Where I live there's no more standard air mail service available even at the main post office and EMS is too expensive so the post office offered sea mail for 40 cents with a delivery time of 45 days or registered air mail for $20 or so. Is it okay to send one by sea mail and the other by registered mail or will that complicate things? Is sea mail worth it? That sure is cheap. Last year I sent the printed out the 7162 that Manila emailed me and sent it by registered mail but it took 3 months to arrive..barely on time. I was so worried. Anyone know the correct zip code for courier service? (FBU Manila sent me the address for courier service but the zip code was blanked out with a series of X's.) Sorry about the long post. I hope everyone is getting their 7162 in a timely manner. I appreciate any responses. It's greatly appreciated. Take care.
