The person concerned first applied for a Personal Public Service (PPS) Number on 31/05/2022.  This application was referred back to the person on his MyWelfare account, on 18/06/2022, with a request for further proof of his identity.  The person was asked to provide either an image of the back of his National Identity Card or of his passport.  As a response was not received, the person’s application expired on 28/07/2022.

The person concerned made a second application for a PPS Number on 18/11/2022.  The application was referred back to the person on his MyWelfare account, on 01/12/2022, with a request for further proof of his address and employment.  The person has been asked to provide documents proving his address and employment, that are dated within the last 3 months.  This information remains outstanding.

On receipt of the requested documents, the person’s application for a PPS Number will be progressed.

I trust this clarifies the matter.
