A. Background

Norwegian disability or survivors benefits are normally reduced by the amount of any similar foreign social security benefit the person receives.

The agreement guarantees that Norwegian disability and survivors benefits for which a person is entitled without totalization will never be reduced on account of U.S. benefits below the pro rata amount that would have been payable if eligibility had been based on totalization.
