How do immigrants prepare for retirement? I'd be very interested in learning about that. Some of the migrant workers -- say, those who leave their countries as teenagers and never go back home -- pay into only one country's retirement system. Others have already paid into their home countries' retirement systems for some years -- I did when I was in Japan -- and then pay into their adopted countries' retirement systems. Can those of us who fall into the latter category in the US draw on more than the US retirement system? Does that depend on whether you retain your home country's citizenship? If we can draw on only the US retirement system and lose what we PAID into our home countries' systems, we will be shortchanged!
