Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 March 2017
136. Deputy Martin Heydon asked the Minister for Finance the reason tax on a pension for a person (details supplied) in County Kildare has increased in the past couple of months; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [12424/17]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that the person concerned is, based on the information available to Revenue, paying the correct tax for 2017. The person was incorrectly granted an additional PAYE tax credit in 2016. This credit was correctly removed for 2017 resulting in an additional tax liability. A tax credit certificate issued to the person concerned on 12 December 2016 showing the correct credits.
I am advised by Revenue that the local Revenue District will be in direct contact with the person concerned in the matter very shortly.
