    In this country can you be employed and self employed. For instance if you were running a service business but had an option to work for someone else part time also could this person pay an employee stamp for you and your own business still remain with you the self employed operator?

    Ok thanks. Just wanted to be sure.

    Can anyone tell me how a Class A stamp works? Do you have to work a certain amount of hours? What is the rate that this is paid at or whatever?

    Any help would be greatly apprreciated.

    PRSI is based on your earnings , and following on from that , you receive a contribution ( a stamp ) based on your earnings .

    There are only 52 contributions ( stamps ) in a normal calendar year .

    Thanks for the link. What difference do all of the subclasses make? Do they change your social welfare entitlements, maternity benefit and the like? Thanks again.
