Key legal question
Whether the AVS individual account could be corrected retroactively for years 1984 to 2002 despite prescription under Art. 16 LAVS.
Extracted holding
No. For years in which no contribution decision could still be enforced, neither supplementary contributions nor the corresponding account entries could be claimed.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 16 LAVS bars enforcement and payment of time-barred contributions; Art. 141(3) RAVS only allows correction of clerical errors and cannot be used to bypass prescription or to decide unchallenged legal questions retrospectively.
