Applying for Top Slicing Relief - Do Revenue do the calculations?

Hi,

I have a general query about claiming Top Slicing relief. My accountant has applied for it and I have received it. I understand the calculations involved, my question is about what is involved in terms of effort for the accountant to apply for it and I can't seem to find an application form.

Assuming an Income Tax Form 11 is filed for the year of interest, what else is involved? Do Revenue do the calculations themselves, similar to if I were to apply for P21 Balancing Statement?

You simply apply for it, Revenue calculate it and forward you a statement showing the workings, there is no real time or input work involved for an accountant, top slicing relief was abolished in a recent budget, good that you qualified for it.
