Dear Editor,
I’m a Guyanese living in the United States since 1984. However, prior to migrating, I was employed with “J. P. Santos & CO; Ltd,”. In short, my tenure began in July, 1969 and ended in June, 1984, with that said; I’m wondering if someone would be kind enough to let me know if I qualify for “NIS BENEFITS.”
I’ll be sixty-six next August, and I’m uncertain as to what the procedures are in terms of filing for this much needed benefit. I understand you may not be the direct link for me to communicate with regarding this, but I’ll appreciate if you would be kind enough to point me in the right direction.
I saw the below mentioned on the internet, but nothing leading me further.
Qualifying Conditions
Old-age pension:
Age 60 with 750 weeks of contributions paid or credited of which 150 weeks must be paid contributions; 25 weeks of contributions are credited for each year that the insured was over age 35 in 1969, up to a maximum credit of 600 weeks.
Thank You!
