Our Process:

We check your tax history to ensure we get a refund where possible for our clients. We offer a strict no refund to you, no charge from us policy. We typically review the last four years of your tax history to identify the maximum tax rebate available.

Our service areas include:

  • Basic Income Tax Review
  • Basic USC Review
  • Extra Refunds for Medical Card
  • Tax Back for Renting

Individuals are due a Tax Refund for Renting if you are renting from:

  • A Landlord
  • or an Estate Agent
  • or a Room in a Friends house
  • And have been renting continuously since December 7th 2010. Tax Refunds for rent are no longer available to those who only started renting after that date.

 

  • Tax Back for Bins

While this Tax Credit is not available since 2012, we can still claim this for you for 2011 and get you a Tax Refund.  The Tax Refund is typically 20% of the amount you paid for your service charges, up to €80 per year. The Services charges tax credit is available for what you have spent on:

  • Charges for local water schemes
  • Waste Disposal charges at a dump
  • Bin Collection Charges

 

  • Refunds for Medical Expenses

With the Medical Expenses Tax Credit you get a refund of 20% of the cost of most medical bills from tax paid.  That’s €20 for every €100 spent.  So what type of Medical Expenses can you get a refund of?

What if my Medical Insurance Foots Part of the Bill?
