    Any Tax Implications on purchasing property with cash, prior to selling my Primary residence

    Hi Brendan, I'm not sure that's correct, I believe you have 12 months grace to sell the old house before it becomes liable to CGT when sold. I don't think renting it out or not makes a difference. Wrt the new house, I assume it is considered your ppr while you are renovating it?

    Monthly budgeting when spouse is paid 4-weekly

    Hi Sweet Pea, I think what you need to do is set up a cashflow spreadsheet in excel (I use LibreOffice - it's free). Mine has the week across the top, then first row is balance in account, second row is your pay, third row his pay, then total income, next you put the outgoings - rent/mortgage...

    I don't have myaccount but can you look under "Irish taxed income" and if it's not there try "Untaxed income arising in the State"? Edit: Just saw that @ClubMan has even put screenshots of where to find the correct place

    Refused letter of tax residence as they have no record of my paying taxes. What do?

    Not really, dividends are subject to income tax and as such the withholding tax may be refunded or further tax may be due if liable at the higher rate.

    Cheapest Electricity Supplier

    Hi, Just signed up for this too. We're pretty heavy users - lots of teenagers - and the 10c per unit is a huge difference. Thanks to @fayf and others for the info.

    Irish citizen, domiciled in England 30 years - Probate

    Whether the property in Ireland was a PPR or not would affect CGT (which is extinguished on death anyway) but if he was resident in England it cannot have been his PPR anyway. It could affect CAT if the person inheriting it was living in it but that does not appear to be the case here.

    Moving funds between institutions, issued a cheque; am I liable for it?

    I wouldn't have thought a financial advisor would usually get into how exactly to transfer funds from one institution to another. They generally stick to advising on which products to put your money in.

    Ulster bank has miscalculated the repayments on trackers for years. Now it's AIB's problem

    I have a tracker with Ulster Bank which has yet to transfer. I put the outstanding balance, term remaining and interest rate into a couple of online calculators and they come up with pretty close to my actual repayment so hopefully not affected. The problem really is that people believe that...

    Surcharge on amended return

    Sorry, I was rather unclear last night - the glitch was that the return would not accept the amendment (of PWST as I had entered the wrong figure) until I went through capital allowances and farm allowances(?) for each of our self employed income and entered 0 in each box. We had not claimed any...

    Land registry Vs memorandum or deeds

    The bank didn't give any money to the vendor, the bank gave the money to you/your agent and you gave it to the seller. It was for you/your agent to determine that the vendor has good title. It would appear that you have now perfected title and therefore have no problem, but you would prefer to...

    How to crystallise CGT loss on Atlantic Resources shares bought in 1984?

    I can't find the Revenue guidance on it but here is charteredacccountants.ie stating that indexation cannot be used to create a loss or to increase a monetary loss so would not apply in this case.

    Choice to Sell or Rent PPR

    The bolded part is incorrect - the period when you were not resident in the property is subject to CGT as a proportion of the total period of ownership, but the final 12 months is considered to be a period of occupation: Revenue: There are exceptions where the property is deemed to be...
