Hi there,

Having recently settled the estate of my both parents that passed in the last year, i am now trying to fill in a IT38 form on Revenue. However, as both parents were residents in Northern Ireland and therefore don't have PPS numbers, i don't see any other way of completing the form unless i can provide this.

Does anyone have any advice on how to fill this in without PPS numbers of the disponers?

Thanks,
Stephen.
 
Could you enter their UK National Insurance numbers and make a note to this effect on the form? Or is it an online form that validates the PPSNN and rejects anything that fails the check?

The latter.

The OP should contact Revenue via MyEnquiries and ask for a solution. This is a relatively commonplace issue which they'll undoubtedly be able to address easily.

My guess is that there are easily thousands of these cases a year and it must be very common.

Statistics on the issue of PPSNs suggests that there are probably one and a half times as many PPSNs in existence as there are residents of the state.
 
As a recipient of money from my aunt's will - she lived in England and had never set foot in Ireland- I applied for a PPS for her, in order to complete my CAT form.
 
Yes, i am Irish resident but my parents not. Seems a bit odd to apply for a PPS number for persons deceased though? I will contact Revenue and ask the question.

Thanks.
 
CAT is paid by the recipient - if the recipient is decease, then the gift/inheritence passes to the next of kin or goes back into the estate

When the disponer lives outside the state see here https://www.revenue.ie/en/gains-gifts-and-inheritance/documents/it39-2003-edition.pdf
Where a PPS number is required for a deceased person or a person who is resident abroad, solicitors or executors should
contact Client Identity Services in the Department of Social and Family Affairs directly by fax at ( 01) 7043237 or telephone
(01) 7043281. Identity information will be required before numbers can be issued
