Hallo there, J,
I am in the same position as you. I had NO IDEA that the WEP applied to me (us) as all the literature available (if you know enough to to ask for it) does not mention foreign pensions.
I was born in England and worked there for 10 years so now receive a modest UK pension and have been working here, in the the US, for over 25 years too. I put in for my SS at 62 and was told that they would withhold some of my (earned) SS as the WEP apples to me. I questioned at length, appealed, all to no avail.
I am interested in more information, if
possible, regarding the deferment that you mention. My email is ingram.sally@gmail.com. Thank you, in advance, for any assistance.
