I understand the Deputy is referring to the PRSI class paid in respect of a particular individual. PRSI classification is a matter for Scope Section of my Department.
Scope section has requested the locally based inspectorate to make the necessary enquiries in this case. Depending on the complexity of the case this can take a number of weeks. Once this information is received, the person’s social insurance record will be verified. The person will be notified of the outcome of these enquiries as soon as possible. In the meantime the person concerned can contact the community welfare service if they need financial support.
