Hotline, email and website on NIS

THE EDITOR: In response to the growing demand of thousands of pensioners for better NIS pensions, I have established an NIS hotline at 758-5382, an email address at nisttconsultant@yahoo.com and a website with 10 steps for all persons to begin checking to confirm whether all of their NIS payments are promptly entered in their NIS accounts.

Since 1972, thousands of teachers, public servants, bank employees, nurses, doctors, office workers, lawyers, accountants, university lecturers and professors, and workers who are trade union members, factory, weekly and daily paid workers, persons have paid thousands of dollars over the past 31 years.

Yet as this generation retires and needs pensions to keep up to the standard of living and quality of life which they worked hard to achieve, they are now discovering upon retirement, that all of the payments by their employers are not recorded in their computerised accounts for the past 31 years. Today, over 800,000 persons, taxpayers and employers are concerned about getting proper NIS pensions and payments when they retire. The problems of retirees is for the past 31 years, that they failed to check on the NIS every three months, so that they would ensure that their payments were entered in their accounts. It is the responsibility of each person who pays NIS to visit the NIS office every three months to ensure that his or her accounts are up to date, and not to wait for 20 or 31 years and then to check on the NIS and expect that all of their payments were promptly and correctly entered into their NIS accounts.

As to correct actuarial investment value of their pensions, that is another technical high-finance matter which must be done by experts in monetary cybernetics, actuarial mathematics and computer science. But the first steps must be immediately completed by every person paying NIS if he or she must be able to get the correct actuarial calculation by experts as myself who have been professionally trained in these areas of expertise from 1968 to 2003.
