There is a range of tax credits and reliefs that we will check if you are eligible to claim back, most of them you’ve probably never heard of before!

Conditions to qualify The relative you claim for must be:
There is no requirement for the relative to live in Ireland to qualify for this credit. However, if you are claiming for your child on whose services you depend, that child must live in Ireland with you. Relief due You can receive a tax credit of €70. You will not receive a tax credit if your dependent relative’s income exceeds €15,060. All of your dependent relative’s income is included for the income limit purposes. This includes their social welfare payments, pensions and deposit interest. If more than one person maintains the dependent relative, the credit is divided between or among them.
You are caring for a dependent child on your own; you can claim the Single Person Child Carer Credit in addition to your personal tax credit. There is also an increase in your standard rate tax band. This means that you can earn more before you start to pay the higher rate of tax.
Unmarried, separated, divorced persons or those who are a former civil partner are eligible to claim the one parent family tax credit. The One-Parent Family Tax Credit is currently €1,650.
The One Parent Family Tax Credit is in addition to the personal tax credit. A person who is widowed, deserted, separated, or unmarried and a child, stepchild or adopted child that resides with them for all or part of the tax year is eligible to claim this additional €1,650 tax credit.
First year of marriage or civil partnership You will continue to be taxed as two single people in the first year. You may qualify for a refund. You qualify if you pay more tax for the year, as two single people, than you would if you had been jointly assessed. If you are due a refund, it will only be given from the date of marriage or registration of civil partnership. You can claim the refund of the difference after 31 December of the year. Refunds are repaid to each person in proportion to the amount of tax each of you paid.
