I'm sure this is just basic maths, but I honestly can't get my head around tax credits, especially when assessed as a married couple.
I'm thinking of asking for a 4 day week in my workplace when I return from maternity leave, but before I ask, I need to know what kind of impact this will have on our salary.
Our current situation:
My salary - 58k
Husband - 60k
He receives my tax credits, so his take home pay is just under €4k and mine is €2,800. (I should note that I top up my company VHI plan and have an AVC of €75, which accounts for some deduction from my salary)
What will the effects on our net income be from me working reduced hours?
