Thank you very much gipimann..... I had a total misunderstanding, as the carers seems to have always had a higher over 66 payment. I wasn't aware of that. That's because I was not approaching the dreaded 66, when I had to leave work to care for my wife, and I didn't check. Now it's a lot...

Anyone?

RE: http://www.askaboutmoney.com/threads/all-pensions-to-be-increased-by-€3-per-week-from-1-january-next.196121/ Sorry Brendan, I replied in the Announcement thread, but I should have opened a new thread, as per the instructions. I'll delete my comment in the Announcement thread. Here is...

wrong place, thread opened.

Thanks to all who helped clarify the taxation of ex-gratia redundancy lump sums, versus pension lump sums. It is clearer to me now, hopefully I get it now. Thanks again guys, including DB74, mandelbrot, 1dave123, angler and Brendan......

Oh God, just checked in here again, and this is still very confusing and worrying for me. Just to reiterate, I had to retire early from my eircom employment in 2010, but I had over 39 year service. I was just 56 then, and I was given my benefits early under an Early Retirement Scheme in effect...

Thanks for getting back re this so soon, Brendan, it is much appreciated. I know it is a very niche concern, but believe me, it is very worrying to see this happening and that feeling of your long awaited lump sum being decimated by the Revenue leaves one with an awful feeling of foreboding...

This sounds just awful to me. I was an eircom employee. Due to ill-health, Cancer, I took early retirement in 2010, got a fortnightly payment, and am due to get my deferred pension, based on over 39 years service next March, 2014. This would also include a Lump Sum Gratuity based on service...

Just on further investigation, or "detective work" ;) as some would call it, can I ask for comments regarding the quote below, from: http://www.welfare.ie/EN/Schemes/RedundancyandInsolvency/redundancy/Pages/RedundancyProcedures.aspx Now, the above information is good, and absolutely...

mandelbrot....thank you for your advice. I can assure you that I was not playing "detective" in this matter. I was merely attempting to reassure a friend who is now in a desperate position. I was asked for help, hence my OP. I was foolishly under the impression that these situations...

Hi there, I have a friend who unfortunately has been made redundant last week, as the Company she has worked for for the past 8/9 yrs. has "gone into liquidation"...... This is the edited text[protecting ID's] of the letter she was handed by her employer: This was dated 07/01/2012, but...

Include me in, I have Quinn Company Care, and I was awarded a three-year Medical Card, in 2010, due to my Medical Condition, Cancer. So, AFAIK, there is no problem here, at least not in my case.......it really does depend on personal and family circumstances, and the case you can make...

Sorry to dig up this thread, but I am having problems with my Neteller Account, which I have used before without problem. 1) I have deposited funds, €350.00, by on-line 3rd party transfer, from my PTSB account. I have done this before without problem, and it always arrived within 2 days...

Sorry, I was posting earlier from an Android phone, not got the hang of it yet. Just to say thanks to those who responded here, it was a worry for some time, but all OK in the end. Just make sure you forward all medical reports as soon as they are to hand, and keep in touch with MRA...

Hi, just an update on this. My wife has today received a Medical Report form from Soc. Protection. This has to be brought to her GP for completion, and returned within 21 days. Can I just ask a couple of questions in relation to this? She has requested new reports from her...

If I may, I would just like to add my condolences to the family and friends of Welfarite. He was without doubt the most clear, practical and helpful posters on AAM on Welfare and other issues. Having just embarked on Round 2 of my own battle with Cancer, which has returned, this sad news...
