We are delighted to announce that the Department of Social Protection will be participating at this year’s 50 Plus Show in the RDS, Dublin from the 12th to 13th of March. We encourage you to visit us at stand 125, where we are offering a special walk-in service for applying for or renewing your Public Services Card (PSC), including the Free Travel PSC
The PSC provides secure access to a wide range of public services. If you wish to take advantage of this service, please bring documents to verify your identity (such as your current Irish passport or driving licence) and address (e.g., utility bill, official letter, financial statement, or lease/tenancy agreement). Appointments will be on a first-come, first-served basis, with new applications taking approximately 20 minutes and renewals under 10 minutes. More information about the PSC is available at gov.ie/psc.
Our customer service team will be on hand to answer questions about the State Pension (Contributory), State Pension (Non-Contributory) and the new auto-enrolment scheme. You can also get the latest information on Long-Term Carers Contributions Periods and the enhanced Pensions Contributory Statement available on MyWelfare.
We look forward to meeting you!
