The person concerned applied for a Personal Public Service (PPS) Number on 23/09/2021.  This application expired as information requested on 18/10/2021 to progress the application was not provided.

The person concerned submitted a further PPS number application on 18/11/2021, again stating it was required for employment purposes.  The application was referred back to the person concerned on 04/12/2021 requesting proof of employment.  This application also expired as the information requested was not provided.

If the person concerned requires a PPS number for educational purposes, she should submit a fresh application.  The documents required in support of this application are:

- proof of enrolment in the course, or

- a letter from the course provider stating that a PPS number is required to register for the course

On receipt of the application and all of the relevant supporting documentation, the application for a PPS number will be progressed.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
