What Dublin pension clients typically need

Dublin's workforce is heavily concentrated in professional services, tech, and public sector — meaning a large proportion of workers have occupational pension schemes, AVCs, or legacy pots from multiple employers that need consolidating.

Common pension questions from Dublin residents include:

Whether to stay in or opt out of My Future Fund auto-enrolment
Consolidating multiple pension pots from different employers
Setting up a PRSA or personal pension as a self-employed person or sole trader
Maximising pension contributions before the annual Revenue deadline
Planning for retirement drawdown in the 5–10 years before retirement

How to find a pension advisor in Dublin

You may send a pension question for Brian to review. Pensionplanner.ie does not promise a local match and will not share your details without separate consent naming a selected regulated firm.

When you speak to an advisor, useful questions to ask include:

Are you regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland? (Ask them to confirm their registration number)
Do you charge a fee, take commission, or both?
How many pension reviews have you done for people in a similar situation to mine?
What products and providers do you have access to?

Brian will review the enquiry first. No local partner is currently appointed and no introduction is guaranteed.

Common pension questions in Dublin

I've changed jobs three times — how do I find my old pension pots?

Use the Pensions Authority trace service and Revenue MyAccount, then consult a Dublin advisor about consolidating them into a single PRSA.

Does auto-enrolment affect my existing occupational pension?

If you already have a qualifying occupational pension, you are exempt from My Future Fund auto-enrolment. A Dublin advisor can confirm your exemption status and whether your existing scheme is meeting your needs.

What's the tax relief limit for pension contributions?

It depends on your age — from 15% of net relevant earnings at under 30, up to 40% at 60+. The earnings cap is €115,000. A regulated advisor can calculate your exact annual limit and help you backdate last year's contributions.
