    Check the files for a U.S. totalization earnings record that we can send to the Uruguayan liaison agency. If one is not in file, request an ICERS record following the instructions in MSOM ICERS 001.001 and MSOM ICERS 001.004 for inclusion in the claims package to the liaison agency.

    When all required material is in file, prepare a claims package for Uruguay according to the guidelines in GN 01762.205 through GN 01762.210 and send the claim package to:

Banco de Prevision Social
