    Hope this helps.

    AFAIK the limit is €5k and its at standard rate only, so the max you'll get back is a grand

    Hey, I have a question. I have been accepted on a post grad course. I was looking at the revenue site there for claiming tax back and it says to qualify for postgrad tax relief you must "already have a primary degree or equivalent qualification". I have a diploma which is a NFQ level 7 qualification - I presume this means I would qualify as I think its the equivalent of an ordinary degree?
