My wife and I moved to Ireland in the tax year 1999/00, I am trying to work out what contributory pension we will be entitled to.
My wife, an EU citizen who never lived in Ireland previous to 2000 has paid 52 class S PRSI Contributions every year for the last 13 years and will continue to pay for the 6 years remaining until she turns 66. Between 1999/00 and 2007 she paid the same for 4 of those years and missed 5 years. It is not clear to me now why these were not paid. Can or should they be paid now ?
I am an Irish citizen, but had no PPS number before 1999, ( I worked and had tax deducted as a teenager, but there seems to be no record of that). I have paid a myriad of PRSI contributions under multiple classes since 1999/00 but at a minimum I have 52 paid class S contributions every year since 1999/00.
I have looked in Citizens Info. but am more confused than ever. I will spare you posting the bits I have found there.
Can anyone advise what pension we can expect. Thanks in advance.
