Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 January 2016
137. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Finance if a paper application for tax relief on health expenses for a person (details supplied) in County Wexford will be processed following correspondence dated 10 December 2015; if the correct name will be used; when the relief will be processed; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2902/16]
View answerI am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that while an on-line application is a quicker, easier and more secure way of making a claim for tax relief, a paper application from the person concerned will be processed if it is sent to Revenue.
The correspondence dated 10 December 2015 was an information letter to advise individuals that they could avail of an online facility to make future claims. Revenue has no record of any current claim for medical expenses relief from the person concerned.
If the person concerned wishes to have any aspect of her personal details as recorded by Revenue changed, she should make contact with, and provide the specific details to her local Revenue District.
