Emergency tax

Ncoleman

Hi. All help greatly appreciated. I am currently working in a full time job and took up a second job partime. I never divided up my credits and i assumed I was put on the higher tax bracket due to higher earnings . I have since left the part time job as received my p45. When I was looking at I noticed part 2 it said Enter E if emergency basis operated. I presume this is emergency tax and if so can I claim it back? I have worked this partime job for a year and get paid fortnightly if that helps. Sorry if question has been asked already but im a bimbo when it comes to these things 🙈🙉🙊

Since you have now been working a year , the first thing I would do is sort out 2016 .
To do this I would register/login online and check my earnings / tax paid and request a P21

Cheers allthedoyles. I actually did that a few months ago but It said I was owed nothing for 2016. Would it matter that I was still employed at the time. Finished up part time job in July 17?

If you paid tax / USC in 2016 and due nothing , might be worth checking the tax credits you received against your personal circumstances again. Did you have medical card in 2016 . Did you have any medical costs . Have you claimed work expenses if entitled to .

At this stage in 2017 , you could contact tax office and tell them you have P45 , and ask them to send you a cumulative cert for 2017 ( if it is not already cumulative )

Also have a look at www.revenue.ie and flat rate expenses

Hi, i have claimed nothing in medical expenses or work expenses since 2015. I will contact the tax office and see whatthey say. Is there any reason i would not be able to claim my emergency tax back?

Hi I start work in Lidl Ireland on 11/06/2017. It’s almost 16 weeks finish so far. And from then till today they cutting my emergency tax and just now today hardly I manage to get my p45 from last company. So if I submit p45 now then how much tax I get back? So far I pay almost 1350€ tax in total. First month 250€, second month 450€ And last month 650€.

This will give you an idea of the tax you should be paying.

You don't need your P45 to get off emergency tax - call Revenue and they can sort it out with your employer.
