I have had considerable tuition fees to pay over the last couple of years in my household. Yet, I only seem to be granted a few measly hundred quid in tax credits. I use ROS and it calculates it internally. so I am not sure how exactly it is worked out. Any ideas?
It is only allowed at the 20% rate of tax and there is a ceiling also. historically that was, I think €2,500 but is €5,000 pa now, so max relief now is €5,000 x 20%.
