Hi,
I was checking the tax I pay, and realized that the tax I pay will be less when married. I'm Non-EEA/EU (Stamp 4) and not married yet.
If I were to marry do I have to have my spouse with me in Ireland to have the tax amount reduced, or do I have to submit a marriage certificate for this (if my spouse is outside Ireland), or is there any other way to go about this.
