Cross border healthcare scheme

[Spritzer]

Hi
My daughter is getting braces in northern Ireland under the cross border healthcare scheme. We pay for the braces and when all treatment complete we can claim a certain amount back from HSE.

I have paid over 1000€ in 2024. It will be 2026 before the claim is submitted. Can i submit the amount paid in 2024 on a med 2 form?
Thanks

I don’t think you can claim tax relief if there is reimbursement from any other source.

Correct. You can only claim tax relief on qualifying expenses that are not reimbursed elsewhere - e.g. by private health insurance, HSE, etc.
