Common pension questions in Waterford

I'm 45 and starting a pension for the first time — is it too late?

It's not too late, but urgency matters. At 45 you can contribute up to 25% of your net relevant earnings with full tax relief. Read our late starter guide and talk to a Waterford advisor about making the most of the time remaining.

Can I access my pension early if I retire before 60?

Standard retirement ages are 60 for personal pensions and PRSAs, 50+ in some occupational schemes. Early retirement rules are complex — a regulated advisor can confirm what applies to your specific scheme.

How much do I actually need to retire comfortably?

The state pension is €14,400/year in 2026. Most people need significantly more for a comfortable retirement. Our guide to working out your number gives a framework.
