Moving to Ireland - when do I become resident?

    Hi,

    We are in the process of moving to Ireland from England. We bought two cars in England in January and obviously are looking at the VRT situation. One of them is in my car, one is owned by my wife. We had not intended to move until December 05 but family circumstances have brought this date forward.

    It looks to me like I may start in June working in Ireland, but living in hotel Mon-Fri and going back to London for the weekend. My wife and kids would join me in August when the kids finish school here and we would get somewhere to rent and (I think) become resident.

    Question - from a taxation perspective would I be considered resident in Ireland from the day I start the job (i.e. June), or would it be when we actually had an address here (i.e. August).

    Anyone got any advice/comments?

    Thanks

    You would **probably** be considered a frontier worker if living in hotel and returning at weekend.

    I imagine the car thing only becomes an issue when (a) you bring the car to Ireland full time (b) you are in Ireland fulltime.
