Retire Abroad & Expat Residency Watch

Track living and retiring abroad for US citizens. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: retirement, passive income, digital nomad and investor residency visa rule, income threshold, fee and processing changes in Mexico, Portugal, Spain, Italy, France, Greece, Croatia, Malta, Ireland, Panama, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Colombia, Belize, Uruguay, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UAE, Turkey, Cyprus and Montenegro; public healthcare enrollment and private insurance rules for foreign residents; US expat tax, FBAR, FATCA, Social Security and Medicare rule changes affecting people abroad; property purchase, rental and inheritance rule changes for foreigners; banking, brokerage and remittance access changes for US persons; consulate, passport renewal and citizenship service changes; and cost-of-living, safety and healthcare quality data releases. Prefer immigration and foreign ministry sites, US embassies, the IRS, SSA and CMS, and established expat and international reporting; ignore relocation-service marketing and unverified forum posts. Put the country or rule first in the title with the threshold, fee or date. Use high severity for a threshold or eligibility change taking effect within 90 days, a program closure, or a US tax rule change affecting most expats. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
