Agreement on Social Security (2003)
Signed by Chile and Australia on March 25, 2003 , this agreement outlines
the management and distribution of provisional pensions and benefits. The
idea of the document is that Chilean and Australian citizens working in one
country or the other will have the opportunity to claim and receive benefits
to which they would be entitled to at home, but in the new state of residence.
The rights also extend to any third country in which the interested party
might reside. The Agreement was approved by the Chilean parliament in January
2004. In turn, Australia confirmed on April 7, 2004 , that the Treaty for
Social Security would enter in effect on July 1, 2004.
