Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 38 / Tuesday, February 26, 2019 / Notices
Agreement with Iceland, which was
signed on September 27, 2016, is similar
to U.S. social security agreements
already in force with 29 other
countries—Australia, Austria, Belgium,
Brazil, Canada, Chile, the Czech
Republic, Denmark, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland,
Italy, Japan, Korea (South), Luxembourg,
the Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, the Slovak Republic, Slovenia,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United
Kingdom, and Uruguay. Section 233 of
the Social Security Act authorizes
agreements of this type.
Like the
other agreements, the U.S.-Icelandic
Agreement eliminates dual social
security coverage. This situation exists
when a worker from one country works
in the other country and has coverage
under the social security systems of
both countries for the same work.
Without such agreements in force, when
dual coverage occurs, the worker, the
worker’s employer, or both may be
required to pay social security
contributions to the two countries
simultaneously. Under the U.S.Icelandic Agreement, a worker who is
sent by an employer in one country to
work in the other country for 5 or fewer
years remains covered only by the
sending country. The Agreement
includes additional rules that eliminate
dual U.S. and Icelandic coverage in
other work situations.
The Agreement also helps eliminate
situations where workers suffer a loss of
benefit rights because they have divided
their careers between the two countries.
Under the Agreement, workers may
qualify for partial U.S. benefits or partial
Icelandic benefits based on combined
(totalized) work credits from both
countries.
Persons who wish to receive copies of
the Agreement or who want more
information about its provisions may
write to the Social Security
Administration, Office of Data
Exchange, Policy Publications, and
International Negotiations, 4700 Annex
Building, 6401 Security Boulevard,
Baltimore, MD 21235, or visit the Social
Security website at
www.socialsecurity.gov/international.

accompanying Administrative
Arrangement are available at https://

Acting Commissioner of Social Security.
