A self-employed person cannot be deemed to meet the qualifying conditions for State pension (contributory) unless all outstanding PRSI contributions are paid. The person concerned has outstanding liabilities with Revenue for the 2008 and 2010 income tax years. The person concerned should notify the Department when the outstanding liabilities have been fully discharged, at which point their pension application will be reviewed and they will be notified of the outcome without delay.
