Review date
A New Zealand benefit or pension should be reviewed from the date a client is granted an Irish benefit or pension, or when the rate of an Irish benefit or pension changes.
If you have difficulty obtaining details of the overseas pension granted contact International Services for advice.
When an Irish benefit or pension is reduced, the New Zealand benefit or pension should be reviewed from the date of the reduction.
