That is flat rate expenses related to your employment. Given these roll over every year you could have that on your record for cages and may be entitled to higher flat rate expenses or none at depending on your present employment.

Another form 11 questions- this time relating to claiming the WFH Utility Allowance in 2022. I WFH fulltime so want to avail of the tax claim on household bills.

I entered details in the "Allowable Deductions Incurred in Employments"

• Add 30% value of Utility Bill for 2022 e.g if bill was 1000 euro for the year I entered 300 euro
• Add 30% value of Broadband

I calculated I worked 225 from home last year.

Select Calculate and a figure as expected got populated in total.

Now I am declaring just dividend income as shares are taxed at source so only income I owe for last year

I go to Self Assessment section and just do the transfer values option to values pre populated .. the money owing on dividends remains the same - should the Utility allowance value be offset against what I owe for 2022 . I was expecting money owed to be reduced do I need to enter the WFH allowance value somewhere else in the form - or have I this all wrong LOL !!

appreciate any help here !!

thanks for reply Surywouldnty - I tried that again as suggested as still not getting deducted final value owing in last page . Ill contact revenue on it - maybe back end issue ? glad to hear I am on right track though ! thanks again.

hey- I checked this with revenue myself and yes its 30% of the yearly bill. - You are correct it is 30% of the total utility bill.

When you add the no of days worked select Calculate and it will give you a figure - you then need to add this figure to the the very last box 'amount referring to Employment income/salary' - this should match what was calculated for it to get picked at the end when system calculates tax owing. I had this nil and it was not getting calculated.
