I was helping a retired nurse friend of mine recently with her nurses pension etc and she gave me documents which state that €8k was deducted from her lump sum on retirement in March 2017 towards widows and orphans scheme, i myself retired from public service in 2022 and got circa 10k deducted from my lump sum on retirement, where it was stated that i could claim tax back on my deduction which i duly did and recieved 40% back this year circa €4k.
I just would appreciate if there is any advice out there as to how/if my friend the nurse could claim tax back or is it too late? she was not aware that she could claim tax back, also bearing in mind that her employer HSE just deducted the money but did not state anywhere that she may be entitled to claim tax back on the amount, appreciate any advice on this
