A person who is starting his-her first employment in the State must (i) obtain a personal public service (PPS) number from the Department of Social, Community and Family Affairs and (ii) complete a form 12A (application for a certificate of tax credits and standard rate cut-off point) which he or she can obtain by telephoning (01) 865 5002. The completed form 12A should be sent to the inspector of taxes who will issue a certificate of tax credits which have replaced tax-free allowances as quickly as possible.
