Help with CG1

eclectichoney

I have searched old threads but just need a little help with filling out my CG1 form (I am a PAYE taxpayer).

I made a loss of €200 from the sale of shares (full disposal) in 2009 and have filled out this in Boxes no. 9 and 14 on the form. I also filled out the total amount of the sale in Box 1a and 1l. This is all I have filled out on the form though. Do i need to fill in anything else (I presume my tax reference number is my PPSN? And is the return address my own address??) I have read the revenue leaflets but I think a dummies guide is probably what I need! You don't need to list out the actual shares / companies etc. you held the shares in or anything, or what you bought the shares for originally it seems??? (though it can be inferred I guess by adding the loss figure to the total consideration)

Correct

Do i need to fill in anything else
Just personal details and signature at beginning

I presume my tax reference number is my PPSN?
Yes

And is the return address my own address
No, it's actually the address of your Revenue office - you needn't complete it. Your address goes in the box above.

You don't need to list out the actual shares / companies etc. you held the shares in or anything, or what you bought the shares for originally it seems???
Correct - but Revenue often request the computation (ie calculation) and supporting documentation later. That is not very likely with a small loss, but you need to keep the documentation in case of audit anyway.
