System.NullPointerException: Attempt to de-reference a null object Class.

I am getting the above error from this piece of code. 
public Set<String> RatingRelease {get;set;}

//Returns the Rating Release date or the rating pending
        IF (Today < currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c){
           String RatingRelease = 'Rating Pending';
        } else IF(Today > currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c){
           String RatingRelease = currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c.format();
        } else {
           String RatingRelease = '';
        }

Hi Carly,

Please do the null check like below:

public Set<String> RatingRelease {get;set;}

//Returns the Rating Release date or the rating pending

    if(currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c != null)
    {
        IF (Today < currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c){
           String RatingRelease = 'Rating Pending';
        } else IF(Today > currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c){
           String RatingRelease = currentQRpCase.Rating_Externally_Visible_Date__c.format();
        } else {
           String RatingRelease = '';
        }
    }
    else {
        String RatingRelease = '';
    }

Thanks,
Maharajan.C
