Part time job plus temporary job with revenue?

    I'm going to leave my job and work 20 hours a week on minimum wage so I can deal with some study. As a top up I'll earn about €560 over 2 weeks temporary agency work. How does this work with tax? Between the 2 jobs I'll be earning enough to pay tax but will it sort itself out or do I need to contact revenue myself?

    You'll pay emergency tax on the second job then will need to sort it out at the end of year for a refund (if under your tax band)

    (You can get your credits split but shouldn't do it for a temporary job)

    You'll pay the higher rate of tax on the second job. Unless you call Revenue and spread out your tax credits between the 2 jobs. But if the 2nd job is only to last 2 weeks, I'd leave the credits with the main job. As above, at year end when you do your statement of liability, you should get a tax refund relating to the second job. You're not guaranteed an overall refund though, as that would depend on whatever else is going on in your statement of liability.
