Hi,
I worked in Ireland for 12 years have a contributed to a public sector pension in Ireland ( approx 9.5 years, with 2 years of prsi contributions in another job and 6 months at home with my children when I was not working that I assume I would get homemaker credit for
I am now working in the U.K. and not planning to return to Ireland.
I am wondering if I need to make voluntary contributions to be eligible for the Irish state pension in the future - I am unclear how things stand now with Brexit so I wondered if someone could advise
I understand that if I want to make additional payments I need to make them within 5 years of leaving Ireland, which will be this July.
Apart from one months break for relocation, I have worked continuously in the U.K. for 4 years 10 months ( in the nhs) , so I am wondering if this will be taken into account for Irish state pension or will this contribute to a U.K. pension
I am unclear if public sector pension holders in Ireland also get the state pension or if this is included in their public sector pension?
i am also unclear if nhs pension holders also get the state pension in the U.K.?
thanks for any advice on this
