    Are you jointly assessed? Did you have some other taxable income in 2019 other than your employment?

    Sorry only seen your reply now. Yeh I was on injury benefit for 3 months as out of work injured. So this effects it?

    Yes it would impact on it. Open to correction but it is the same for the likes of maternity leave. Revenue will adjust down your SCROP &/or tax credits to factor in that you have received this 'income' via illness benefit from the DSP without paying any tax on it.

    So you end up paying slightly higher tax on your income from work to counter the fact that you didn't pay tax on the illness benefit payments from the DSP.
