My wife and I taught in Korea from July 2005- October 2006. We've already left the country. I've called the Social Security office like 5 times and they are no help. Anybody have any advice? Oh yeah, we're American. Thanks |

Did you go to your local pension office here, file the refund form and give them US bank account number before you left? |
