    Hi

    Can anyone help, I've been reading past threads about claiming tax back but the more i read the more confusing it gets :confused:

    I'm a student from UK but i'm living and working full time in Dublin for 13 months (June 2009 - July 2010). It's part of my degree.

    Once I leave in July and wait at least 4 weeks, all I need to do is send my second part of my P45 and form P50 to the tax office and I will get my tax back? Is this true?

    Will this refund my tax for 2009 as well as 2010 or will I need another form for that?

    Thanks in advance!

    The refund threads refer to full time workers.

    You may actually be taxed resident for these years as to be tax resident in 2009 as you have to stay in Ireland >183 days in the calander year or over 280 over two years. Split year relief may also apply.

    Anyhoooooo,

    In short, if you were working in Ireland you are taxed Ireland has primary taxing rights. Add up your days in Ireland for 2009- I'm sure you went home a bit, if you are under 183 days send in a letter with your 2009 P60 and you should get the full whack back.

    Include in this that you are non resident for the rest of 2010 and you wish to apply split year relief from the date you left, and they will apply it and hopefully speed up your refund for 2010. If you are held to be resident in 2010 (likely under the lookback) then you will get Irish Credits and may take a credit for Irish tax paid in your 2010 UK Earnings.

    It does become a bit more complicated in the case of cross border workers. If you have any questions please feel free to come back
