Under FRG law, the particular FRG social security system—white collar, blue collar, miners’, etc.—which has jurisdiction over a specific claim is generally the one under which the person was last covered.  This rule also applies under the Agreement.  The miners’ pension insurance system only takes account of periods of coverage in the U.S. that were completed underground in a mine.  It is the claimant’s responsibility to satisfy the miners’ system that the periods completed in the U.S. meet this requirement; the U.S. system is not expected to assist the claimant in obtaining this information.  If a worker fails to qualify for a miner’s pension after totalization, the miner’s U.S. and FRG credits are transferable to one of the two general FRG systems.  (The FRG has given assurance that under FRG law, any claim referred to an Agency not competent to deal with that claim will be referred by that Agency to the proper Agency.)
