setting up as self employed for part time work

Washout

Hi my wife has a new job where she works 80-100 hours every quarter.

but she needs to i think set up as a self employed person for taxation purposes.

her income will be ~5,000-6000 euro a year

what are her options?

also she has applied for carers allowance...will this affect her application?

is there implications on her for me being assessed for tax as an employee and as a married couple tax band?

You must not be engaged in employment, self-employment, training or education courses outside the home for more than 15 hours a week. During your absence, adequate care for the person requiring full-time care and attention must be arranged. from here http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/social_welfare/social_welfare_payments/carers/carers_allowance.html also as carers allowance is means tested the extra income may have some effect.

down load a TR 1 from Revenues web site but read the info on the site on self employed/ self assessed.
joint assessed but your PAYE income will have to be included on her return
