Living in ireland, working for UK company. Tax liability? Please help!

[caramella]

Hi all,
I am Irish and living and working in Ireland. My husband is English, living in Ireland but still working for UK company (belfast and UK based from time to time approx away 1 or 2 days a week)

I am taxed as a single person in Ireland but my hubby has continued to be paid in sterling and taxed in the UK. He's been here for 7 years now and we get a different response each time we enquire with the Irish revenue. He has a pps no and we've hidden nothing nor do we intend to.

we desperately need advice but can't seem to get any clear answers.

Are we likely to owe a fortune in Irish Tax?

My salary is €50k. His is approx stg£38.

Any comments very welcome!

You are not likely to get clear advice from the Revenue on this, as this is a complex issue.

As your husband is carrying out some of his employment duties in Ireland, his company are obliged to operate Irish PAYE on his employment income, although they may not be aware of this obligation. The company should be advised to take Irish/UK tax advice in this matter.

This is a complex situation, and the company is responsible to operate taxation issues correctly.

However, as your husband is Irish resident, he needs to be Irish tax compliant, and should seek a tax advisor in this regard
