The following list contains the international check distribution offices for benefit
checks. Countries with an asterisk next to them indicate countries where we send regular
monthly checks directly to beneficiaries through IPA in bulk shipments. In these countries,
we can only intercept PMA checks. PMAs are the only checks we send to a Foreign Service
Post for distribution.
NOTE: In the following chart (E) signifies an Embassy and (CG) signifies a Consulate General.
