Hi there
Just found out that over 2006 adn 2007 i was entitled to claim mor tax credit than i was claiming (refuse charges and also VHI payments) can anyone tell me how i go about getting a refund

Does the refund just up your current years tax credits or do u get a cheque with the refund?

Cant seem to find a form to fill in anywhere so any info would be great

thanks a mill

Just write to Revenue with details of the unclaimed credits/allowances and including a copy of your P60. That should do it or else they may ask you for further clarifying info or a Form 12 return for the year. It's relatively painless in my experience to backdate claims for for credits/allowances/reliefs. You can do this for up to 4 previous tax years. If you are registered for PAYE Self Service Online then you may be able to do this stuff online too.

For mortgage interest tax relief it may be credited to your lender thus reducing your mortgage costs. For the others you will probably get a refund by cheque/bank lodgement.

In my experience if there is no obvious form - or even if there is - simply writing to them with the necessary details works.
