It has emerged that thousands of renters are yet to claim rent tax credits worth €1,000 for 2022 and 2023.
This scheme, which was announced as part of last September's Budget, allows people to be able to claim tax credit worth up to €500 for each year between 2022 and 2025. New figures revealed that just 22,000 renters have claimed the credit for the two years.
Some 193,283 taxpayer units made claims for 2022 only. Another 9,611 taxpayer units made claims for just 2023.
