With effect from 1 January 2010 an application for the return of PRSI contributions was limited to within four years of the last day of the contribution year in respect of which the contributions concerned were paid. The legislation governing this four year limitation is contained in section 38A to the Social Welfare Consolidation Act 2005.
As the application on behalf of the person referred to by the Deputy was received in December 2012, a refund was given for the previous four years in accordance with the above legislation.
