    Just a quick question!

    I got placed in a school last minute today that is 98km away according to google maps but this takes me on ridiculous back roads! If I choose going by motorway it’s 1 minute longer and the distance is 104km. I am just wondering will I get overnight pay if I write down the motorway distance?

    I do not want to start paying for a hotel if I will not be reimbursed for it!

    Thanks


    ......had a similar issue myself calculating my mileage.....route planners send me the most direct route over mountains,single track boreens & “restricted roads”......I scoured the handbooks and found the phrase that a “safe & practicable” route should be taken.....I intend to attach evidence of such on my claim sheet

    Still no advance payment. Finished since Tuesday! I called and they said its due to PAYE modernisation whatever that means. I've a feeling I won't be seeing it for a while.

    Did you send the prsi form back to them?

    Did you have to pay your attendant out of your own resources then?

    That's a very, very big assumption for the SEC to make. I wonder what they'd do if the superintendent hadn't the money...

    USed you get the advance payment taxed before. I seem to remember they give you the bulk amount and then you can pay the attendant, then they deduct the tax in the final payslip. Was that right?

    Why doesn't the attendant just get it directly off the SEC?

    I just got my final payment information in the post this week, but I’ve noticed a mistake on it. It states that a €600 advance was deducted, however the advance that I was actually paid on 11th June was only €312. I’ve emailed them about it.

    Did anyone come across anything similar?

    You were probably taxed on the 600

    Can I ask what date you sent in your finance form? I would imagine they have to deduct the 600 because that's what they paid you regardless of tax deduction.

    I posted my finance form on Tuesday 11th June. Why?

    Hi Sandyxxx. My friend is having an issue with this. They are sending her on back roads from her school to Athlone as the shortest route. It is not a safe travel route. Could you tell me what handbook you found the safe& practicable route in. Thanks.

    It was under the claiming your payment section in either the general instructions or handout that you send back in the stationary box to the SEC!

    No but if you google the phrase “shortest practicable” you will see it appear in circulars for public sector,HSE etc!

    It might originate in this circular from 1982!!

    Do other posters really get paid in 30 working days? I'm looking at 50+ at the mo and could really do with it. Emailed and pay modernisation was mentioned........... :confused:

    It’s normally spot on 30 days but this year appears to be different. Even my examiner advance was delayed.

    I got mine about 2 weeks ago. Maybe more. I sent the payment form away the day we finished.

    No why? I often leave things like this for a few weeks. If I don’t have it I can’t spend it and I’ve a few payments coming up so it works out for me. I had genuinely forgot about it though as I have been busy.

    It's just that anyone I know who does or has ever done the superintending does it because they need the money and would prefer to have it sooner rather than later.

    But seriously though, send it in. I'm sure they can't refuse to pay you but I definitely read something about them wanting you to have the form in within 30days
