What are the pension options for someone temporarily not self employed/employed?
 
Don't forget PRSI credits that count towards the state contributory pension:

Applying for the State Pension (Contributory)

From 1 January 2025, if you apply for the State Pension (Contributory), there is a new way of calculating your rate of payment.

while on a Jobseeker's welfare payment:

Payments for unemployed people

or even when not in certain circumstances:

Credited social insurance contributions

A credited social insurance contribution is a contribution given to you and recorded on your social insurance record. This page explains the rules on credited contributions for students, carers, homemakers, voluntary development workers and people who retire early.

Sorry, did you mean "can't"? So an RAC is only an option if/when one has earnings?
