Hi,
My dad died and put me as a beneficiary on his life insurance. He was a US citizen. I'm not living in the US nor do I hold US citizenship. The form that I need to fill out asks for a SS number / tax ID number as well as I assume a US residence.
I'm concerned about what difficulties I will encounter because I am not residing in the US or have US citizenship. Would I be heavily taxed for this reason? Or somehow ineligible to receive my claim? Would the claim process be made difficult / impossible? I tried searching through the insurance company's site but there is no indication of what steps I have to take as a non resident/citizen, hence my concerns.
I have already sent the insurance company an inquiry and am waiting for a reply. I wanted to ask here on reddit just incase anyone has knowledge of what I can expect or any other information I should be concerned with.
Sorry if this post is not precise enough, everything is all crazy and weird and sad right now. Any reply is greatly appreciated.
