636. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Social Protection if a pension certificate can be issued to a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [44069/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person concerned has been in receipt of State Pension (contributory) since 26 May 2014.
I have arranged for annual tax statements for 2020 to 2023 plus a year-to-date statement for 2024 to issue to the person concerned which outlines the total taxable payments issued by my Department.
State pensions are not taxed at source by my Department. The person concerned can contact the Revenue Commissioners to determine his tax liability in Ireland, if any, and to request a tax clearance certificate if so required.
I hope this clarifies the position for the Deputy.
