I’ve been married ten years in Japan and don’t plan on immigrating back to the US but for estate benficiary purposes (ex. my us bank account and Roth IRA) the benficiary needs a social security number. How difficult would it be about getting her one with no intention of moving back. Thanks for any help this stuff is such a headache.
