    Hi all again. Not sure if you could help me on this one. I'm filling in the form 11 (late I know) online, and just stuck on one thing.

    I got help with it last year, so wasn't paying as much attention as I should.

    I am paying tax on two trades/business/whatever you'd like to call them.

    I have my expenses figures for both, and what I earned from both.

    So, on the first, I am at the section:

    Profit assessable in 2013

    Amount of adjusted net profit for accounting period:

    Amount of adjusted net loss for accounting period:


    Not being much good at maths at school, I assume in this case, I'll just be putting in the net profit figure (which would be the figure after I subtract expenses from earnings, correct?)

    Or, do I just scroll down to the parts with the headings of Trading Account Items (see attached) and continue from there?

    I think I'll submit something, and let them get back to me if I have left anything out.

    Your adjusted profit is the your net profit plus the add back for light and heat and personal motor

    You will need to give us more info than that!!! who did you inherit the property from
    as this makes a massive difference


  • Registered Users Posts: 163 ✭✭theenergy


    inherited from my mothers neighbour

    of absolute no relation


  • Registered Users Posts: 90 ✭✭Gard1


    value 200k less the 20k expenses and 15075 threshold allowance =164925 @ 33% = 54,425

    CGT = 220k - 10k fees = 210 sales proceed less 200k cost = 10k gain less annual exemption 1270 = 8730 *33%= 2881

    Doing form 11 online and looking to find out what is allowable in the section "Allowable Deductions incurred in Employment", I referred to the "Guide to Completing 2013 Pay & FileSelf-Assessment Returns". All it says is "Depending on the nature of your employment you may be entitled to expenses against your income. 'Flat rate' expenses are approved by Revenue in relation to certain employments/occupations. A full list can be found at www . revenue . ie." Well, maybe it can, but it might be a help if they said where. I can't find it.

    Does anyone know where this can be found or, alternatively, what's allowable. I'm employed as a software developer, my wife as a clerical officer. Is there standard stuff that can be claimed like a clothing, etc?

    Thanks.

    Google "flat rate expenses 2013" and you'll find the spreadsheet/chart.

    Off the top of my head, I doubt there are ones for you guys but I could be wrong.

    810 is correct.
    That's the max you can claim as a tax credit.

    spouse, so marriage (or civil partnership) is necessary.

    You would be able to claim about 300 in unclaimed tax credits and 10,000 in unclaimed tax band giving an annual saving of approx €2,300.

    But yes marriage is necessary.

    so there will be no ammendments to my pay slip? what if my circumstances change and I fall out of work, surely I have no job seekers behind me or is this also incorrect

    Just wondering if I should apply for a P21 balancing statement for 2014. According to my P60 I was paid 42k and paid tax of 7k with usc of 2.3k. I'm single, under 30, and have 3.6k tax credits.

    In 2014 , on an income of 42k you would have paid 7k tax and 2.3k usc , but with tax credits of 3.3k

    You say your credits were 3.6k , so apply for balancing statement and find out what the extra 300e credits are .

    And remember the only way to reduce your tax liability for 2014 , would be to increase your tax credits .
    Browse the www.revenue.ie website and see what your entitlements are .

    Hi all,
    Im on 35k a year an I am considering taking a month off in the summer without
    pay. What would happen in terms of terms of tax? I currently pay about €120 per month into pension and my take-home would be €520 p.w.
    Thanks in advance.

    At the moment taxable gross pay is 33600

    thismis in the lower rate band so you would only save on your marginal rate 31%. If you were to get a pay raise it will move you into yhe 40% tax band for paye which would allow incease your savings from a month off considerably. So if you are not sure if you want to take a month off wighwigwithout pay this year or next year and you willmget a pay rise next year would be a better option

    Thanks Ciaran,
    I reckon a pay increase is off the table for this year!
    Roughly would I claim back a in a one-off payment or would I see it in a reduction on the tax I pay weekly following the month off?
    Any idea roughly how much I would get to claim back??
    Thanks in advance.

    should i file for a tax return?

    all my colleagues at work advised me not to do it, since i may get some money back, but i may also need to pay the government.

    is there a way for me find out what i can expect? i'm working i ireland for 2 years already.

    Hi, wonder if anyone can advise. My partner returned to work and i received an amended tax credit cert, basically all of our combined income is now taxed at 20% and not as previously where i think around €42k was taxed at 20% and everything above at 41%. Now considering that there was about €25k taxed at 41% and this is now taxed at 20% shouldn't i have seen some benefit in my wages? This is my second pay month and all i have seen is that my tax status changes to W because i lose the home carers credit for my wife going to work and my my total take home is down by €80 to repay that credit...Anyone know what is going on here?

    W means weak 1 month 1 ie only the tax credits for the payment period are allocated to a months payment.
