Are you entitled to a U.S. pension? Don’t give up before checking.
Did you work in the United States? Did you pay into the U.S. Social Security system? There’s a good chance you’re owed money. A U.S. pension isn’t just a dream—it’s the result of rights you earned through your work there.
So who is actually eligible for a U.S. pension?
Anyone who has accumulated at least 40 work credits—which usually means about 10 years of work in the U.S.—and is age 62 or older (the age when partial benefits can begin).
To receive full benefits – you must wait until age 67.
Even those who have a Social Security Number but are not U.S. citizens may be entitled to a U.S. pension if they worked there.
A spouse who is not a U.S. citizen may also be eligible for up to 50% of your benefit.
How much money are we talking about?
The amount depends on the earnings you reported in the U.S., but the average monthly benefit ranges from $500 to $1,500—and some receive even more.
A spouse may be eligible for up to 50% of your benefit, meaning an additional $200–$750.
I only worked in the U.S. for a few years—does it still make sense to check if I qualify for a pension?
Absolutely. Even if you haven’t earned all 40 credits yet, it may still be possible to complete them.

I’ve been living in Israel for many years—does this still apply to me?
Yes! You don’t need to live in the U.S. to receive your pension. Your rights are preserved—even if you’ve moved back to Israel.
I have no idea how many credits I have—what should I do?
Just leave your details and we’ll help you check. There are official ways to find out your status with Social Security.
I’m already receiving a pension—but I didn’t know my wife might be eligible too!
It happens a lot. You can still check and apply on her behalf—this money shouldn’t go to waste.
I’m not a U.S. citizen—I just worked there in the past and had a Social Security Number.
If you worked in the U.S. for a few years, it’s definitely worth checking your eligibility. You might still qualify even if you’re not a U.S. citizen.
Do I need to fly to the U.S. to sort out my pension?
No need to travel—we handle the entire process from here in Israel.
I got an official letter from Social Security saying I’m not eligible!
That’s correct—based on you current credits, you’re not eligible yet. But it’s possible to complete them. Contact us for guidance.
I’m already 70—does it still make sense to complete the credits at this age?
It really depends on your U.S. earnings and your age—sometimes it’s well worth it. Let us evaluate whether completing the credits makes financial sense for you.
