Hi,
I have a question re. my wife's pesnion at retirment age (some 20 years away). My wife worked full time up until our nchuldren were born, our youngest will be 12 in August 2007. So between her employment contributions + credits while in the home, she sill have pretty muc continous contributions / credits since commencing her emloyment some 25 years ago.
If she does not return to the workplace & assuming I have all the required contributions to claim my state contributory pension when I reach retirment age , at todays rates, what would our weekly pension amount be ?
On the contrary then, if she does go back tio the workplace in August 2007 & both of us continues in employment until retirment age, what would our weekly pension amount be in thsi scenario, again at today's rates.
Basically, what impact will letting her PRSI contributions / credits lapse have into the future / retirement.
