Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 4 February 2014
232. Deputy Eoghan Murphy asked the Minister for Education and Skills if tax relief can be claimed in respect of tuition fees paid for approved courses at approved colleges of higher education, including Government-mandated registration fees for third level institutions; and if not, the reason for same. [5309/14]
View answerThe position is that tax relief at the standard rate of tax may be claimed in respect of fees paid for approved courses at approved colleges of higher education. This tax relief provision means that second and subsequent siblings in a family do not have to bear the full cost of the student contribution. Further information on this tax relief is available from the Revenue Commissioners on www.revenue.ie.
