You might like to ask Dr. K. Ruud who implement GIAO in Dalton.
 
I asked to Dr. K. Ruud, follow his answer
From:Kenneth Ruud

 As far as I know from reading about the NMR of
paramagnetic molecules, there are no problem in calculating the
NMR parameters of such compounds. There might be important higher-order
contributions from e.g.spin-orbit coupling. However, these may aso be
calculated with e.g. Dalton.
The main problem is normally that programs cannot easily or accurate treat
open-shell systems. Dalton should be able to do a fair job on these
systems.

From: Georg Schreckenbach

I have read statements like "truly
quantitative calculations of chemical shifts for paramagnetic compounds
have not yet been reported" (B=FChl et al., J. Comp. Chem. 1999, 20, 91) whi=
ch supports this view.

  Cheeseman, et. al. looked at this when implementing the procedures for
Gaussian94.  J. Chem. Phys. vol 104, pp 5497 (1996).

From:Noah W. Allen, III

You might want to check a review article by A.C. de Dios found in the
"Journal of Progess in NMR Spectroscopy", 82 (1985) 5035.  It's an excellent
source of review for this material.
