I have a part time job where I am on the payroll. Recently my hours have been cut and I have been offered a few hours elsewhere. I will be able to do both timewise but I'm not sure how to handle it payroll wise. The second company don't mind if they pay me directly or via payroll. I was thinking I might have to register for income tax and declare the second income that way. If I go on both payrolls how do I handle PRSI etc. There isn't a huge amount of money involved either way. Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated
 
Assume both jobs are normal PAYE? I went to Citizens Advice to ask about this before, and as my first job used up all my allowances, they were allocated the full SRCOP etc. It meant everything from the 2nd job, I paid PRSI, PAYE tax on every cent. It was easy to follow one it was set up. I'd ring Revenue - they are well used to this.
 
Thanks Stephnyc, I'll give Revenue a call tomorrow. Did they end up paying 2 lots of PRSI and if so did you get a refund at the end of the year
 
It just means all your allowances are used up on one job, you can split the allowances between both jobs, either way you pay the same overall amount of tax.
 
Thanks Monbretia,
Have you any idea what happens regarding PRSI. If I pay an A1 contribution in both jobs I'll end up with 104 cons per year
 
Not really, it still just counts as 52. Same as a person earning 50k and one earning 100k, one just pays way more for their weekly contribution than the other, it's based on income and not how many employers contribute to it in the week.
