one of many.... as for the soc sec. i belive they now have agreements between countries if you take one soc sec then you would get the difference in the other country only if higher and you put in the work hours required..

for example. England will ask if you worked there for a number of years and then relocated to states etc. then they will calculate your soc sec from states and combine work hours to come up with an adjusted soc sec. so you may some % of additional dollars from England in addition to states soc sec. then again you find that England soc sec system contacted u. s. and the went an deducted the % from state .

If you know someone who worked in England before going to Canada they should apply to england for soc sec benefits. I know of one person here collecting for ten years of working over there before relocating and they didn't get their soc sec adjusted here. In fact i think i may have the form filed away some place. see ya

ps I believe you can file for soc sec at age 60 in England
