Hi There

After much research (thanks to AAM!!) - I want to pay a lump sum into my pension for last year. Can anyone guide me on how I do this and claim the tax back. Do I just:

Give a cheque to my pension company?
Include the amount of my tax return for last year?

Is it as simple as that?

Also, I am about to start paying AVCs through payroll from this month - will the tax credit show automatically as they will deduct AVCs from gross not net??

As always, I welcome the advice!!

On the first question see this key post and look (browse/search) for other similar ones on the site. When making pension contributions from net pay make sure to claim both tax and PRSI relief.

On the second one if the AVCs are done via payroll then you get tax and PRSI relief at source.
 
Actually that thread is not as comprehensive as I thought. Try some of for more info.
