I have a question regarding social security and/or other federal benefits, where do I go for assistance?

If you live in Brazil and have questions about the Social Security Administration (SSA), you must contact the SSA Federal Benefits Unit (FBU) in Lisbon, Portugal. For more information, please visit their website .

You may contact FBU Lisbon by email FBU.Lisbon@ssa.gov (please include your name, date of birth, phone number, the last four digits of your Social Security number, and your question).

Information on U.S. Social Security enrollment and benefits can be found on the website of the Social Security Administration: http://www.ssa.gov/
