Invalidity pension (IP) is a payment for people who are permanently incapable of work because of illness or incapacity and who satisfy the pay related social insurance (PRSI) contribution conditions.
The department received a claim for IP for the person concerned on the 23 February 2016. The file has been sent to a Social Welfare Inspector (SWI) to report on the circumstances of the person in question. On return of the SWI’s report, the IP claim will be processed further and a deciding officer of the Department will be in direct contact with the person concerned regarding the outcome.
