Is it mentioned in the Separation Agreement? Are you still married to each other?Myself and my wife separated in 2015 legally.
Assuming you are referring to the state Surviving Spouse pension, it applies to both spouses.Provided your former wife has not remarried or be cohabiting, she can apply for contributory widow's pension based on your PRSI record if you pre-decease her. This would not be means tested.
Should you re-marry, both your current and former wives could apply for widow's pension.

I am not cohabiting, just myself and kids in our home.Hi , I have a related question. Separated in 2010 and divorced since 2016. Apart from some time around then Ive been working full time. My ex husband is on Disability Allowance and hasnt worked full time for some years. If my ex husband passes away before me, might I be entitled to widows contributory pension? Thank you
Contributory surviving spouse pension depends on PRSI contributions; if that is insufficient you may be able to claim for non-contributory but that is means tested.might I be entitled to widows contributory pension
Exactly & if you dont qualify for contributory you may qualify for non-contributory.This page states that one person needs to have enough contributions for either to qualify - https://www.citizensinformation.ie/...ted-benefits/widowed-persons-contrib-pension/
There's two different questions there.Hi guys. My question was in relation to the state Widows pension.
So can my ex inherite from me without limits or paying tax ?
Thanks.

Specifically on the tax question, if you are just separated, there is no tax. However, if you get divorced that changes.I'm just wondering if she'll have to pay tax on it.
Did you get legal advice on this?Inheritance rights have been extingushed legally in separation agreement - however it is my intention to devide my assets equally between my kids and ex wife
I'd double check that; OP says they have a legal separation in place that extingushes inheritance rights.if you are just separated, there is no tax
Doesn't change tax.I'd double check that; OP says they have a legal separation in place that extingushes inheritance rights.
