Thousands Of PRSI Workers To Be Refunded
Tens of thousands of workers will receive a refund after overpaying their PRSI.
The Department of Social Protection said taxpayers were already being paid some €10m back with an average refund of €400 each.
According to the department, the overcharging was because of a discrepancy in the health levy part of social insurance from 2010.
The refund is not automatic and the Consumers' Association of Ireland is advising people to check their payslips and apply to the Department if they think they are due money back.
