cmarshall Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 The ssa.gov website says that person who is applying for survivor's benefits cannot do so online, but must call the SSA. Does that mean for a US expat appyling for survivor's benefits should call Manila? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffr2 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Due to late mail here, I missed reporting my mother still being alive. This was 8 years ago. What a nightmare. I think I started with Manila, but ended up getting routed through several different people in the US. Took maybe a year to get her payments reinstated. Having to call during their hours was tough. When accessing their websites, it's sometimes necessary to use a vpn to make look like you are in the US. My initial interactions with Manila were very good.
