    SS is not forfeited you do not lose your benefits. As a matter of fact you can have your benefits deposited into a DR bank if you so desire. I know many family/friends that live inDR and receive their SS benefits. You do however need to communicate you are moving abroad to the SSA.

    I really like Santo Domingo, but living there permanently would be too stressful for me. Puerto Plata certainly has its charm, but there are nicer places. Sosua forever? God forbid, impossible at the time, the nest would first have to be rid of a series of human civil failures. Maybe something will change after the construction work. For this to happen, mass prostitution would not necessarily have to disappear there, but the permanent presence and visibility of prostitution would have to. Cabarete is good for a few weeks, maybe months. Sometimes I long for the Juan Dolio of the 90s. I would also like Las Terrenas as a location, but also other places on Samaná. Las Galeras is also conceivable with a few mobile compromises. Barahona is also definitely interesting, and above all, the place has a future. For permanent living in a city, Santiago is my favorite. I love this city with all its advantages and disadvantages.

      @@CarlosRamirez-vo1jt I know its the number 1 destination for vacationers, I made a video about it so I know. Vacationing and retiring is 2 different things. This video is about retiring not resort vacations. And for some Punta Cana isn't the best place to retire, no matter how you feel about it. There are retirees all over the island and why they didn't choose Punta Cana is because other places offered what they wanted. This ihas nothing to do with my preference, where a person reitres is their choice. This video just offers options.

La delincuencia en ese país está en todo partes something I don’t like, it’s you’re living in a jail hierro por todas partes para que no te roben…Así como es un país hermosos por sus playas, resorts lugares también está la otra partes fea…Una delincuencia total que casi nadie menciona 😢😢😢😢NYC
