Hi all,
I have a situation here. I always want to have a pension but for years I always delay it. Like most people, I know nothing about it.
My current job does not offer any pension scheme with payroll. I heard from a colleague that she has a pension outside work (not deducted through payroll). I am planning to do the same here and setup a pension with an independent pension adviser because I have been waiting for years from my employer. I am in my late 30s and I cant wait any longer. I want to contribute a lumpsum for last year's pension and continue to contribute on monthly basis. So there are my questions:
Should I go for personal pension or PRSA pension based on my circumstances?
If I am paying this outside payroll, should I declare this with Revenue through Form 11 or PAYE anytime to receive tax relief? Or a pension provider can do this for me?
My husband has a dormant company, which I am also a director. The company does not pay me salaries because there is no income for now. How can I qualify for executive pension option?
I can talk again with my employer about PRSA from work. But to be honest I am so fed up with it. This will be my last source of solution.
If someone can help me, I would be very grateful. I would love to have a pension.
Thanks a million in advance.
