@dejan Since August 2020, actually.
There might not be a report ever again. The National Pension Insurance administration has stopped responding to my letters.

@024tomi If they don't want to answer your emails, it wouldn't hurt to contact them by phone in early 2023. I contacted the Central Registry Office in my country and was told that they do not have reliable data, because in their lists there are still people who died more than 30 years ago, but no one has reported his death and they are still listed as living persons, and actually they died 30-40 years ago.
Data from the pension insurance fund is probably somewhat more reliable than the central register of citizens, for example in the central register of citizens of Slovenia, the oldest living person is a man, born in January 1911, while Julijana Zskrajšek is currently the SEVENTH oldest living person in Slovenia, just behind five women born from January 1911 to October 1912 and one man born in January 1911 who is listed as the oldest living person in Slovenia as of 2019. Milena Vintar, one of Juliana Zskrajšek's great-nieces, checked out of personal interest, who claims that Juliana Zskrajšek is still not the oldest living person in Slovenia, because it is a man born in January 1911 and five women born before 30 October 1912 according to these according to the data, there are currently a total of 7 people born before 30 October 1912 in Slovenia, of which a man was born in January 1912. 1911 is the oldest living person. (7 people over 110 years, personally, I don't believe that is possible for Slovenia). I have saved copies of her response in a screenshot where she claims that Julijana Zskrajsek is NOT currently the oldest living person in Slovenia...
She stated that her great-aunt Julijana Zskrajsek feels humiliated when someone tells her that she is the oldest Slovenian woman, that is exactly why she checked whether she is really officially the oldest living person in Slovenia, but the answer was, currently the SEVENTH oldest living person person in Slovenia. She also said that she does not want to submit the documentation until the central register of citizens informs her that Juliana has become the oldest living person in Slovenia, for now it is still not according to the data from the central register of citizens which are not reliable for me and I think it is almost impossible in Slovenia lives man born in January 1911...

Elizabeth "Betty" Lightfoot (née Vesprame) was born in Hungary on 22 February 1915 and moved to the US in 1921. She died on 19 December 2022 in Fort Thomas, Kentucky aged 107 years, 300 days.

Is it possible to find out if she was born in present-day Hungary, or another part of the Austro-Hungarian empire?
@heatwave116 Her naturalization record says that she was born in Budapest.
@heatwave116 @930310 I was able to find out (using his death record mentioning his parents' names) that her father, originally called Ferenc Veszprémi, was born in Felpéc, Győr-Moson-Sopron County in 1872. However, I couldn't find a birth record for Betty (Erzsébet Veszéprémi) or her mother (Mária Markus, born in 1885). I'm not 100% sure Betty was born in Budapest, it might have been a "filler", having not known the name of the exact village.
It would be great to find more 107+ years old people born in present-day Hungary who died in the US. Besides Elizabeth Lightfoot, I can only think of Helen Obermayer (1879-1991), Julia Ribar (1888-1995), Elizabeth Stefan (1895-2008), Joe Madar (1905-2013) and Mary Ann Natly (1907-2014) off the top of my head. I reckon there have been 10-20 more in reality. I wonder what would be the easiest way to discover them.

With the death of Istvánné Fejes the oldest person in Hungary becomes Arpadne Juhasz on 5/14/1914 in Gyor-Moson-Sopron ?
[...]
However, the following is a pleasant surpise, as her last online mention was from her 100th birthday: Árpádné Juhász (née Terézia, surname not yet known to me) turned 108 back in May. She was born on 14 May 1914 in Győr, and currently lives in a care home in Győrújbarát.
Árpádné Juhász confirmed alive as of today.
