Income Tax Returns - 2009
It's never too early to file.... |
The Revenue Commissioners recently announced that the deadline for filing your 2009 income tax return online using Revenue Online Services has been extended from 31st October to 16th November next.
Even though the deadline seems a long time away, we've already filed returns for 2009 for a number of clients.
Some clients elect to file early in the following circumstances:
- where they may be due a refund as a result of unused tax credits or possible overpayments in 2009
- where they would like advance warning of any liability they might have to pay in November. By preparing the return now you can find out how much you'll have to pay in November - you'll also have plenty of time to consider options to reduce your tax liability e.g. pension contributions.
If you would like to look at your income tax return for 2009 now please let us know and we can start work on them in the near future.

Non Principal Private Residence Charge
€200 charge for 2010 now due for payment.... |
The Local Government (Charges) Act 2009 introduced a €200 annual charge on non-principal private residences. This charge is payable by the property owners to the local authority in the area where the property is located.
The liability date for 2010's charge was March 31st 2010. If you are liable for the charge then it must be paid within three months of the liability date i.e. by June 30th 2010.
Unfortunately as owners of investment properties there isn't too much you can do to avoid paying the charge. However, we do file numerous returns for clients with rental income sources and work with them to minimise the associated tax charges. If any of your friends or colleagues need to file an income tax return as a result of earning rental income then please pass on our contact details if you feel they could benefit from our services. |
