Hi,
I have a couple of questions, I’m hoping someone can help me with
I was a pre-95 public sector employee, before I tmoved to the private sector at 50. I am now retired, signing on yearly for Credits, and will reach 65 in July. I have 523 reckonable paid PRSI contributions and 274 reckonable credited contributions. This puts me in the 15 – 19 yearly average PRSI contributions band. Most of my reckonable paid PRSI contributions are at class A. However, my most recent paid contributions are 52 at class S in 2020 (ARF Drawdown).
First question: will this give me a pension at 66 with 90% based on the rate for this band and 10% on the TCA method?
Second Question: have I any way of qualifying for a pension at 65?
(I’m taking it that the Class S stamps in 2020 will not satisfy the requirement for paid contributions. If so, I reckon I need 13 weeks employment at a minimum of €38 per week. Is this correct?)
Thanks in advance.
