Vol. 384 No. 8

Written Answers. - Married Person's Tax-Free Allowance.

70.

asked the Minister for Finance the circumstances under which a couple, each of whom was previously married, will receive a married person's tax-free allowance.

The Revenue Commissioners have advised me that, where a person claims the married personal allowance, the inspector of taxes will normally admit the claim unless he has reason to doubt its validity. In such cases the inspector may ask for sight of a marriage certificate and, generally, the validity of the marriage would not be challenged if a certificate were produced.
