In light of recent changes to the processes of accessing US social security benefits for Americans living abroad, especially retirees in France, The Local is seeking feedback to gauge experiences related to these shifts. The Social Security Administration had initially mandated in-person applications, but subsequently reversed this stance, allowing claims to be completed over the phone. This U-turn has sparked uncertainty and raised concerns among expatriates about potential difficulties or challenges they may face regarding their benefits, prompting the survey invitation for their input.
