THE IMMEDIATE DOUBLE BENEFIT TO REDUCE YOUR TAXES NOW!!
Seamus Parfrey
By Seamus Parfrey
 
The deadline for filing 2014 income tax returns is 31 October 2015 or 12 November 2015 where returns are filed and the tax paid through ROS.
 
You can reduce your 2014 tax liability by making a pension contribution on or before 31 October 2015 or on or before 12 November 2015 and backdating  the income tax relief against the 2014 tax year.
 
BENEFITS IN KIND TARGETED BY REVENUE
By Noel Murphy

Directors who have not paid benefit in kind (BIK) tax on company loans are currently being targeted by the Revenue Commissioners. 

This can result in substantial tax liabilities as the Revenue are also applying interest of 13.5% on the loans when they are calculating the BIK tax payable.
 
And penalties and interest could more than double the amount due.
 
It currently appears, if directors make a BIK declaration before a Revenue Audit is notified, penalties and interests may not be applied.

MILEAGE AND SUBSISTENCE CHANGES?
By Una Beecher

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) ruled in Sept 2015 that workers (e.g. sales executives) who do not have a fixed office are entitled to count time spend travelling from home to the first meeting of the day and the journey from their last meeting to home in the evening as work time.
 
Accordingly this time must be included in working hours, rest breaks and pay when they are being calculated.
