    I just got my payslip for the year, can any find a link for what the breakdown of tax should be taken compared with last year. I thought it would be something small but there seems to be a lot more taken this week then previous week

    Weirdly I got €6.50 more. That's just money into my bank as I haven't checked my payslip yet.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Yeah they have just helped themselves to 13% of my weekly pay. Just for the record I come out with 355 a week.

    What a ****ing joke to be honest, I don't mind paying some 5/6% not 13% . Sure next year it will be 15% then a few years 20%.

    I shed a tear when I hear of story's like the TD's in Dail getting iPads, I mean is this what I am paying 13% of my yearly pay for.

    Just checked and I'm down €28 on my standard pay ffs. That's almost €1,500 per year.

    PRSI exemption is gone, thats 4% straightaway legally thieved from your paypacket. I don't get my Jan payslip till the end of the month so I anticipate in horror at these horror stories ;)

    My 2013 tax is the same as my 2012 tax - absolutely none :cool:

    Are people earning hundreds each week to be down by that much. I mean €500 a week?

    Just went to confirm this with my boss (also my best mate) and she had a look and said I'd be down €200 a month :eek::eek:

    Luckily it was just revenue forgetting that I'm single :D

    €23 a month it is.

    Think I might stay on the dole


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,791 ✭✭✭ash23


    I'll be down about 25e per month because of PRSI.

    Y'know, in some ways, I don't blame you. Every time I pay a toll, pay my car tax, pay for the dentist, pay for health services, paid for education, even just open my payslip each month, I feel like a f**king clown. I feel like I'm working a full-time job just out of pride or something.

    Just was told by accounts that because of being on weekly pay we went in to week 53 so the USC charge was paid at the highest rate. Next week it will return to normal

    Gotta pay for Biffo's and Bertie's pensions, folks....

    The only one of those you wouldn't be paying if you were on the dole was health services......So don't feel too bad about it.

    My point was more that I don't get high-quality services in return for the taxes that I do pay.

    I hear you. It'd be worse trying to pay for those things on the dole though.

    Prick.

    Don't get my payslip till the end of the month, but the boss apparently has a policy of increasing wages to absorb tax changes.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,157 ✭✭✭srsly78


    No change whatsoever for self-employed people. Didn't get the prsi exemption in the first place.

    You'd have to pay all those things regardless though! You're also paying for the massive social welfare cost, don't forget that when people come up with stuff like this:
