Hi all,
Hoping some of ye can give us some advice.
My husband discovered on friday that his job had gone into liquidation last Dec and his boss had sent in p45's to revenue for all the employees, but he didn't tell the employees about it and they have all still been working there.
Basically, his boss is trying to re-open the business under a different name and didn't see any point in telling them all they were legally out of a job!
We have applied for FIS which we are due to receive a decision on in the next couple of weeks, although I was told on the phone that there is no reason why we wouldn't get it. Now however, when they go to process my husbands claim i'm sure it will come up that he's actually un-employed and has been for 3 mths so our claim will be rejected. We lose out on weekly payment and the best part of 2,000 euro in back payments.
My husband has obviously told his boss that he is leaving the job as we don't want to get fined from the revenue when this inevitably comes out. The boss reckons the business will be back up and running within a couple of weeks and is urging the employees to hang on and not report him. This all only came out because we needed my husbands p60 or a payslip or we would lose our medical card. They obviously have not been given payslips and were told it was because they were changing accountants.
We have lost so much and are financially ruined because of this. Not easy when you also have 4 kids.
What is the best way to handle this? is there anyway we can recoup some of our loss especially with the FIS? don't know where to turn
