More than 50% of Irish workers are missing out on an average of €1,250 according to new research.
A taxback.com survey found that most Irish employees are not claiming the tax reliefs and refunds they are due back on a yearly basis.
Barry Cahill, director of Taxback.com’s Employee Financial Wellbeing Service, said he was surprised and alarmed at the sheer lack of people claiming tax refunds. While some believe tax reliefs and refunds are only for those on a certain income or meeting eligibility conditions, in fact, most people are due something at the end of each tax year.
