    I am taking the lump sum option on a pension (€11,000), half of which will go to my ex., they will issue a P45 for the taxable portion.
    My only income is the old age pension, will I get a full refund of the tax deducted?.

    Is the half going to your ex under a legally enforced maintenance agreement?

    Then you should get a deduction from your taxable income, equal to the amount of payment made to your ex.

    Then, depending on how much your pension is, you may get some or all of the tax back
