How can I find out how many contributions I have accumulated over the past 19 years working in paye private sector for state pension entitlements ?
Am now changing status to self employed sole trader & need to assess if I have enough credits to date for when I retire in the future.
thanks for any advice.
 
As you are going self-employed you will continue to pay PRSI (at class S).
All contributions (class A & S) will be combined to determine your rate of pension at the ripe old age of 68 (perhaps)
 
It is important that you check the status of your wife/husband in relation to pension. It may be useful to pay on behalf of both of you, company in both names, particularly if your partner has not pension in their own rights and under 55 yrs of agae, or if they have property or assets. You need advice try Citizens Information Centre for accurate information.That would enable them to claim their pension without means test. Browtal
