outnumbered82

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

SEPT 23 1989

Its the Bear Tax

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

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.

gurramok

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:

Mrs Garth Brooks

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

€23 a month it is.

€400, down to €395 a week. I need a raise

Think I might stay on the dole

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.

outnumbered82

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.

srsly78

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

sfwcork

Im not looking forward to seeing mine.I work for a multinational IT company who already are squeezing the **** out of targets.Its 5 times more difficult to get paid

Tar.Aldarion

Don't earn too highly, lost 25 per month, 5 per week.

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:

Only down 6 euro pw myself due to the loss of the PRSI exemption. Other increases are the result of increases in my annual train ticket, increase in pension deductions, and VHI going up, so not strictly speaking tax increases.

Again, per my subsequent comment, I'm referring to the quality of the services in return. They're there, but barely.

Again and again people first refer to the cost of ministerial expenses/pensions and social welfare, since that's the most prominent thing in our view - they overshadow the other services we pay for. Our public services are in a horrendously disorganised and inefficient state.

Roads are great, but we pay for them three times. Then we get told we have to pay a property tax for local services. Why? Because the money we've been paying for years has all been blown.

Yes it's a story that's been trotted out again and again, but it just enrages me! Because of those who foolishly spent - and are still spending - the money earned by this country, we have this very thread, telling each other how much our payslips have been reduced by.

Again.

For what?

If you want seriously high quality services, expect to pay far more tax.

Unless your already paying a massive whack on the higher bracket

This makes me sad!

€ 5.08 per week or €22.01 per month regardless of what you earn.

Yeah, this. There's no reason anyone's deductions should be one cent more or less than this as the PRSI change is across the board and PAYE and USC rates and credits havent changed at all. People should be checking their gross pay rates and non-statutory deductions to ensure no one is trying to pull a fast one on you. The anomoly of a Week 53 USC rate should balance up next week

Did you vote YES to the Fiscal Treaty?

That's what you are paying for. Bankbailouts, the survival of the Euro as a philosphical idea and the Croke Park Agreement.

That's why there was also a NO vote side.

Out of my pay raise I'm going to buy.......wait this is not 2003.......:(

retalivity

FYI, my aggregated tax-rate in Canada is 23%.

midlandsmissus

Im down 10 euro.

Paid weekly.

What does the 53 week USC thing mean?

K-9

As far as I know there was no changes to any tax, PRSI or USC rates, only the abolishment of the PRSI allowance so people should only be down that €5.08 a week.

Week 53 is having 53 paydays in a calender year!

Not totally correct. As stated before self-employed people never got this tax credit, so no change for them. And yes you can be paye and self-employed.

I am hopeful, valentines day is coming and I have a jewellery website, so I really do hope all of you men out there do something bold enough to have to grovel............lots of jewellery grovel lol

(very reasonably priced as I only need a wage this is due to paying very high taxes for years but daring to be a director so no benefits for me, they cant force me to make loads of taxable profit, such a shame!)

MurdyWurdy

I didn't pay any PAYE in 2012 - only started working in Sept and never went over my tax free allowance so my pay will be down not matter what!

It was nice getting payslips and only getting USC and PRSI taken out of it. I felt rich
