If you reside in Brazil and have questions regarding services provided by the Social Security Administration (SSA), you must contact the SSA Federal Benefits Unit (FBU) located in Lisbon, Portugal. For more information on their services and how to contact them, please visit their webpage at: https://pt.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/social-security/.
