Early Bird Tax Return

A) The pay and file deadline for income tax (for the year 2015) is 31st October 2016. As always though, If you file your tax return and pay tax online (through ROS – Revenue Online System), the deadline is extended until the 10^th of November 2016. However, remember that you need to both file AND pay to avail of the extended deadline.

 

It is not too early to start, now is definitely a good time as you can spend more time with your Accountant looking at potential tax saving opportunities. Also, it is easier to deal with the Revenue now as they find themselves very busy close to the deadline
