The Social Security agreement between the United States and Slovenia:

• •

  eliminates dual social security coverage and taxation of the same work; and

• •

  permits workers (and their dependents and survivors) to qualify for partial U.S. or Slovenian benefits, even if they do not meet the normal insured status requirements.

This subchapter provides:

• •

  a brief overview of the Slovenian system;

• •

  eligibility requirements for Slovenian benefits; and

• •

  an explanation of the provisions of the agreement.
