Form 12 return for 2006

[Jimmy Bond]

Both my wife and I work in full time employment. During 2006 we reveived maternity benefits from the Social welfare office. Do we need to include this information in our tax return for 2006? If so, where in Form 12 does this information go? Appreciate any info here.

MB is not taxable so you don't have to include it as far as I know.

Maternity Benefit is a payment for employed and self-employed people who satisfy certain PRSI contribution conditions on their own social insurance record. Maternity Benefit is not taken into account for tax purposes.
