    Yes but the amount is based on inflation so some years the increase can be zero %. In case of deflation a negative increase (decrease) is not allowed.

    PJ: You are wrong here I believe.
    AlwaysRt is correct as I think he is talking about a U.S. Social Security pension, not the U.K..
    Some years we get zero increase and other years it is adjusted based on inflation.
    Also we get the same amount of S.S. pension whether in country or out of country.

    I think it would have something to do with you only getting a part pension from 2 countries.....I dont have to return every six months, but after four weeks away from aus they do reduce it to the basic pension...they take off all the add ons.....
