    Hi Guys,

    I am looking at getting all my taxes reviewed to see if I have overpaid over the years.

    Before I get onto the tax man, just want to find out if maybe I am wasting my time.

    I want to get all my taxes checked back to 1997 what would the procedure be for this ??

    Thanks

    Woody

    Look for form 11 on www.revenue.ie

    Get all you P60/45s, get receipts etc for rent, work expenses.

    Talk to an accountant / book-keeper

    Would you not be concerned about drawing attention to yourself?

    Get on to the Revenue and ask them for your P21

    This will come with an attached Cheque of Tax owed to you. They do all the work(they may make mistakes - check). I got my one 2 weeks ago for €777.30 :)

    I do the general accounts for a few companies - not qualified (yet) to do the actual final accounts. Anyway I was dropping down one of the companies accounts yesterday and I have received some dividends from it as I have a 10% share. The accountant said he feels I may have overpaid tax for 2003 so asked for a look at my P60 and it turns out I'm due back around €2000 :D. So its really worth checking - hope you're as lucky as me Woody!

    Not sure whether this is the same:

    I was abroad (In Oz / US / et al.) for the first six months of this tax year (and the last six months of the last tax year) ... having started a new job my TFA / Credits are the same as I got the last time -- i.e. I am paying tax.... I expected this but am I able to claim this tax back as I will have overpaid tax when it comes to year end...

    If yes how?

    Note: I have already successfully claimed back tax for the last tax year (2003) using the form P50? - first claim for tax refund during unemployment...
