If yes, request a form Med2 from your dentist, send it to us, and we will maximise any tax refund due to you.

Please forward your form Med2 to medical@irishtaxrebates.ie or to our postal address.

Health Insurance

Does your employer pay for your Health Insurance?

If yes, you may be due additional tax credits. Please forward your annual statement from your healthcare provider or a letter from your employer to us, and we will do the rest. These documents should include all the names, dates of birth & breakdown of the cost of those family members covered on the policy.

Child with a Permanent Physical or Mental Impairment

If yes, you could be due additional tax credits so please contact our team to discuss your situation.

Nursing Home Fees

Are you paying Nursing Home Fees?

If yes, please forward a copy or your receipt for these fees, along with the name, PPS Number, & date of birth of the person for whom you are paying the fees. You could be due a greater rebate, and we will liaise with Revenue for you to secure this.

Carer in the Home Fees

Are you paying an individual or organisation to take care of an elderly relative or an incapacitated person?

If yes, please forward a copy or your receipts, for the past 4 years, for this cost, along with the name, PPS Number, & date of birth of the person who is being cared for.

My Family

Tuition Fees

Have you or your family incurred 3rd Level tuition fees in recent years?

If yes, please forward a copy or your receipt from the course provider.

Please note that the first €3,000.00 of a full-time course and €1,500.00 of a part-time course are disregarded for tax purposes. (Specific foreign language and IT courses are exceptions.)

Example: If you had one child in university full time paying €3,000.00, the full amount is disregarded. However, if you had two children in university paying €3,000.00 each a total of €6,000.00, in this case you could be due a further rebate.

Stay & Spend Tax Credit

Did you know that if you spend more than €25.00 on a visit to a local restaurant, Irish hotel etc. between the 1st of October 2020 & 30th April 2021, you could be due money back?

If you do, please forward copies of the receipts to us, and we will look to maximise any rebate due back to you.

Married & Caring for a child at home

As a married couple, does one person work full time with the other person caring for the children either on a full-time basis or in conjunction with some part-time work outside the home?

If this applies to you, please provide the Names, Date of Births & PPS Numbers of your children, and we will look to increase your rebate potential.

Also please let us know the years you have not cohabited with a partner within the last 4 years.

Single Parent but not the Primary Carer

If the above applies to your situation then subject to certain conditions you may be eligible for a substantial tax credit.

If neither you, nor the other parent of the child, are co-habiting with partners, and if the other parent is not availing of the credit, then they can assign the tax credit over to you.

Simply contact a member of our team to help you with your application to access your refund.

Has your job or indeed Covid 19 required you to work from home in recent years?
