    I am under the impression that everyone in public service has to make pension contributions bar a small few.
    What I do know is that Pension levy is taken from you even if you don't have a pension!!
    What percent is it of the gross becasue that will tell you soon enough (pension divided by gross and multiply by 100.

    Yes. You pay into a pension from day one as a qualified teacher.

    But i'm not qualified, i'm being paid the unqualified rate. I only have a degree, no hdip. I've been working in my school since novemeber but its still only a temporary position so didn't expect to be deducted pension.

    Pension is deducted from day 1.

    If less than two years are worked, pension contributions are refunded.

    It is better if the contributions are deducted from day 1, especially the levy as if you want the time included in your pension later on you will have to pay interest on the pension levy bit which would make it quite hefty.

    As far as I can figure it out you get your pension payment back at the end of the school year because you lose your job and are not employed for the summer.

    Please correct me if im way off...but i have a feeling you should be cautious about restarting a pension with the dept. Post 2009 (if you are thinking of claiming it back when leaving your substitute job as another poster suggested)
    From what I gather, if you are a NEW entrant to the pension scheme this year your entitlements are a whole lot less than if you are in it before 2010.

    How does that work? Sorry to sound like a complete ignoramus :cool: Do you get it back automatically or do you have to claim it? Also does anyone know where to get tax claim forms so we sub teachers can claim it....I can't find the right form anywhere.....apologies...I am blonde :p

    I don't really understand the situation to be honest, but I got a payslip for the pension I had paid in in June last year, I did not apply for it. I have been subbing regular hours for some years. I really must check it out, but it is only since the levy came in that it has been a noticeable amount.
