Amharc ar fhreagraThe Scope insurability section of my Department makes statutory decisions on the insurability of employment under the Social Welfare Acts. It deals with employers, employees and the self-employed, who may apply, where there is doubt, to have an employment or self-employment status investigated and the correct class of pay-related social insurance (PRSI) determined.
Scope section can also determine if a person genuinely worked in a partnership and to do so will require that the person or persons concerned apply to it for a determination and provide any details necessary to assist with the determination.
The persons concerned should apply to Scope section to have the circumstances of their partnership status investigated. The address is Gandon House, Amiens Street, Dublin 1 and phone number is (01) 6732585.
I trust this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
