    I need to get my deceased mother's PPS number in order to transfer the ownership of her house to my daughter, was given the number to ring so far it's cost me around 20 euro as they seem to be always busy and all you get is 'THANK'S FOR HOLDING, Every 15 seconds, has anyone else had to deal with this crowd and how busy can they be, i'm beginning to think there is nobody there at all,:mad::mad::mad:

    Had She a social welfare card or medical card? It's on it. Pension slip also has it.

    If you were calling today , then you are right. No one is there. It's Saturday.

    Is it an 1890 number?

    Other than that you can find the PPSN on things like a P60.

    Before 2000 apparently a wife's number was the same as her husband's with a W at the end.
    You'll need to send off a copy of the death certificate anyway.
    Try to find a tax or welfare document,save some hassle.

    Some interesting facts about me.


    I have two PPS numbers.
    Was sent both when I started working for some reason but only ever used one.





    Two more interesting facts about me.

    1) My knob is the same length as 2 Argos pens.

    2) I'm banned from Argos.

    Make sure to charge your daughter for the 20 quid out of the cost of her new house.

    Tip of the day...it would be far more tax efficient if the house went to you and was then passed on to your daughter upon your death.

    A parent can give a child €320,000 without any tax liability.
    A grandparent can give a grandchild €32,500 without any tax liability.

    Does he have to die first before the daughter can inherit the house? See a negative side there..

    No he can gift it. The difficulty would be finding a reason to first sign it over to himself as it would be contrary to the will.

    His daughter could relinquish her rights in the will and then depending on who else is remaining he could then get it, however so would any other of his siblings.

    I don't think anyone is going to be giving out a PPS number to some randomer who calls up on the phone.

    Write to them, enclosing a copy of the death certificate, certified copy of your own ID and address, and whatever paperwork showing that you are in fact administering the estate. (This is my guess of what they'll ask for.)

    Then they'll most like write back and give it to you.

    Local Intero(social welfare) office should be able to help you too I'd pop into one rather than calling as you said you're hours trying to get through to them. Bring ID and any info on the details you're trying to source or the reason why you need them.

    I hope getting the PPS number will be the least complicated part of the property transfer. I have a feeling it won't.
