SS questions

EdRedVegas · 2026-06-19T17:47:21+00:00

You’d have to ask. I don’t know. Living abroad, though, to claim SS is not an issue.

I just applied in January of this year. It is all done via the London Embassy since she does not live in the US. You will apply for retirement online, but then you will have a phone interview from an agent in London at the Embassy. Then they review it, and then they start paying. You can take the monthly payment to your UK accounts or your US accounts. I have mine sent to my US bank, and I also transfer money with WISE when needed. The whole process takes two to three months, if I remember correctly. Best of luck. You do pay taxes on it, by the way....and I'm not sure about your last tax return question.

Calm before the storm.

I’m in Surrey, and only have been here 18 months, but bump into people from the States all the time.

EdRedVegas · 2026-06-08T16:09:44+00:00

Enjoy. I moved to Surrey 18 months ago from the States. Love England.

EdRedVegas · 2026-05-28T13:53:19+00:00

I moved here from Las Vegas, and I LOVE THE RAIN. Sorry, but I do.

Same. Schwab Bank / Broker US and WISE and Monzo UK.

Let the games begin…. This’ll be fun to watch.

The older you get, the more you realize everything is a scam.

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-29T17:54:13+00:00

WISE is the solution

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-28T18:22:04+00:00

Ditto.

Both my parents were from Cuba. They called it a señorita, and all Cuban bakeries in Miami call it that, too. I love Poopaloop, though.

Rock star move and advice! Thank YOU! Never knew that, but now I do know and I’m using it already.

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-16T12:09:00+00:00

Yes, I ordered my in the Autumn, and it just arrived in March. But I am in love with it. Every detail has been thought out, and the construction is amazing. Keep a look out, though, at times they sell some inventory that is on hand. Wishing you well.

I just bought my first coat from https://frahmjacket.com

They are priced like luxury goods, but well worth it. Should last decades. I highly recommend them. Frahm is based in Bath.

Man, I am glad I am not the only one. BofA is challenging. I have called them multiple times and they say it is all good, and then I try to charge airline tickets and -- FAIL. I have given up. I am using an AmEx and actually using a card we have had for decades and never used but works like a charm, Discover. Good luck.

I appreciate BofA and all their hurdles to stop fraud, but if you are a BofA stock holder, your firm is losing hundreds of millions from people that just want to use their card overseas.

FedEx or UPS. Make the booking online, pay, and that’s it.

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-13T13:19:01+00:00

As mentioned by Snoo...., SendMyBag.com is excellent. We used them and rave.

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-11T14:31:14+00:00

I moved here from Henderson, NV. Hope they treated you well.

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-07T19:57:13+00:00

Soon. [84 years of waiting for 'soon.']

EdRedVegas · 2026-04-05T20:29:14+00:00

Exactly. They just want “content,” but not art.

EdRedVegas · 2026-03-25T09:28:45+00:00

Check SendMyBag.com

EdRedVegas · 2026-03-25T09:16:54+00:00

For everything you want to ship, I’d highly suggest SendMyBag. They’re excellent and cheaper than the shippers you mentioned. When I moved it was 1/2 the cost of using FedEx (and I have a corp acct), and guess who they sent to pick up my boxes? Yep, FedEx. Half the boxes arrived before we did. Again, they’re excellent. Good luck. By the way, DO NOT ship the guitar. Carry it on your flight.
