Emigrating - Claim tax back?

[daveg]

I'm emegrating to Australia in December and am wondering if I could claim any tax back. Am a PAYE worker and have paid tax all year. Thanks in advance.

You can apply for a refund of tax paid by supplying the following details to your local tax office:
- a completed claim form P50 (available from [broken link removed])
- your P45 (available from your employer)
- a completed return of income form 11; ​

Send the above along with a statement to the effect that you are going to live abroad permanently or in such circumstances that you will not be resident in Ireland for at least the following tax year.​

Not sure you need to submit the form 11 as this form is for self employed only

When did/will you stop working?

This is what the Revenue state - presumably it's the only way they can be sure you've no other income that needs to be taken into account.

for a paye worker a form 12 is the most you'll need (form 11 is for self employed). btw, if you leave your job in december you won't get much tax back as you will have used most of the year's credits up (but every little helps)
