Yet every year, almost all of us pay more tax than we should. In Get Your Tax Back, Aidan Kelly tells you how you can reduce your tax bill by claiming all the allowances which are due to you. This straightforward, easy-to-read guide is guaranteed to save you money.
Get Your Tax Back reduces the chore of dealing with the Department of Revenue and deciphering which benefits you are eligible for to an easy step-by-step task. Did you know that stay at home parents are also entitled to a homecarers allowance? Reliefs are valid for 4 years plus the current year? Simple formulae for calculating your true tax liabilty are given along with contact details for Revenue offices nationwide and a glossary of terms.
Get Your Tax Back explains taxation, which taxes a person is liable for and the common forms necessary for dealing with the Revenue Office.
