Repayment of Tax

    I have just found out that I owe €5500 to the tax office. I changed jobs internally back in Oct 2010 (literally I just moved desks in the same office) I moved from weekly to monthly payroll. Anyway to cut a long story short my company sent the tax office a P45 for me so the tax office had me down as not working since 2010. Stupidly I never noticed any change because I had got a reasonable salary increase with my new job and my husband never noticed either because he had some reductions and his salary just balanced out. Anyway I only found out by chance about this but the long and short of it is my company is saying it isn't anything to do with them even though they did send a P45 to the tax office and I am now having to pay the price. Any advice on how I should handle it i.e. does anyone know how repayments to the revenue works?? Any advice greatly appreciated.....

    I had a similar problem recently. What the tax office did was change my tax credits so I was paying it off over the next 3 or 4 years. I.e every year I'd be paying an extra 300 or 400 tax.

    You may wish to contact your local PAYE section in writing outlining your circumstances and request that it be collected by reducing your credits over the next four years. However the amount may be too large to recover by reducing your tax credits. If that is the case try to set up an installment arrangement to pay it off monthly.
