The position is that a UK state pension is exempt from Income Levy and USC. I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the person concerned has not been charged Income Levy or USC on this portion of their income. The person concerned may wish to contact the Revenue Commissioners directly at the Wicklow District, at telephone 01 631 6500, to discuss this matter in more detail.
