I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a letter regarding their DSP pension details was issued in this case because the individual has a private pension in addition to their DSP pension and there was a possibility that they were potentially liable to additional tax. In addition, Revenue was unaware that the taxpayer's personal circumstances had changed. However, I am further advised that based on the most recent figures supplied to the Revenue Commissioners by his pension provider, for the 2010 tax year, the person concerned is not liable for tax or Universal Social Charge payments in the current year. I am also informed that the taxpayer's records have recently been brought up to date and a revised tax credit certificate has already issued to the taxpayer.

I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a letter regarding their DSP pension details was issued in this case because the individual has a private pension in addition to their DSP pension and there is no indication of their date of birth which means that they were potentially liable to additional tax. However, I am further informed that based on the most recent figures supplied to the Revenue Commissioners by his pension provider, for the 2010 tax year, the person concerned is not liable for tax or Universal Social Charge payments in the current year and Revenue will issue a revised tax credit certificate immediately to reflect that fact.

However, I am further advised that based on the most recent figures supplied to the Revenue Commissioners by his employer, for the 2010 tax year, the person's tax credits for the current year would appear to be sufficient to ensure that he will not be liable for tax and may also be exempt from Universal Social Charge payments. When he receives his P60 for 2011 he should contact Mr. Diarmuid O'Connor, Revenue House, Blackpool, Cork (Tel 021-6027506) who will ensure that the taxpayer concerned receives his proper entitlements.
