Currently Ireland does not have a joint pension refund scheme with Korea.

If a future agreement is reached I could claim back my pension for the current year?

Is there anything to indicate they are planning to do that?

I'd love for that to happen with the UK, but have given up on the idea now...

My boss is so sweet...she's been paying the full amount of the pension the whole time because she felt sorry for me.

This is a positive experience, but there isn't much to be said about it (unlike negative experiences that carry so much 'weight' on forums).

If you can't get the money back now then wouldn't you be able to get it when you retire? Technically?

I don't know about Ireland, but I think I'd trust the Korean system over the US SS.
