ASRS retirees or beneficiaries receiving a monthly benefit who reside outside of the United States, please note:
- The ASRS cannot make direct deposits of benefits to foreign bank accounts.
- The ASRS must have on file the address where you are living, and, if possible, a valid email address. This applies even if your benefit is being deposited directly into a U.S. bank or financial institution.
- Members and retirees should notify the ASRS of an address change via the ASRS website. To do this, log into your secure myASRS and select “Update Primary Mailing Address”.
- If you permanently move back to the United States, it is important that you notify the ASRS upon your return.
- U.S. citizens living abroad cannot elect to have no federal withholdings on IRS Form W-4P, unless they can provide a home address located in the U.S. or one of its possessions. Contact the IRS for tax information.
