I've been retired for 5 years and receive Social Security. I recently moved to Canada to marry and I live there now.
I am a Permanent Resident of Canada -- NOT a citizen.
I've been getting my checks deposited in my usual American bank and, since moving to Canada, l transfer it to my Canadian bank account. This causes a 30 day wait for it to be complete.
Can I contact SS and just have it Direct Deposited to my Canadian bank? Will that result in a cut of my money, or would it stay the same?
