radnyc Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Is Social Security sending the "Are you alive ?" Letter or the Representative Payee Report (for a dependent child) this year? I know it was suspended last year. Any info as to the current status? Edited June 27, 2021 by radnyc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 No info yet as to whether the 7161 or 7162 forms will be sent this year. I have not gotten one yet. Check this topic from last year for any new info. https://forum.thaivisa.com/topic/1166558-us-ss-form-7162/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radnyc Posted June 27, 2021 Author Share Posted June 27, 2021 Thanks. I was hoping there might be some updated info for 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Two years in a row would really be something. Why can't they just offer some kind of online alternative? Like a video call or something where you show your passport? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again that was done as an instruction when the normal mails didn't work (and indeed the requirement was suspended for all). My point again is why no just have a default online all the time? It could be online form like FBAR for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
