    A number of cinema gift vouchers were gifted to a friend a couple of years ago. Recently she tried to use two of these but when the vouchers were scanned she was told that they had expired. The vouchers do state that they expire within 12 months. Are these vouchers worthless now or are they...

    Irish life is tied agent with PTSB. Is an investment with Irish Life separate to investment in PTSB in terms of the bank compensation scheme? (e.g. if 70k in both Irish Life and PTSB - is each treated separately).

    I logged onto lpt.ie but it's not giving me an option to upload photos to apply for the exemption. At this stage I will probably just print photos and apply by post. Thanks

    Expenses allowed when selling house

    I think the last budget referred to an unoccupied property being liable to LPT payment x3?

    Expenses allowed when selling house

    Apologies if my post was unclear. LPT is paid to date (although maybe it shouldn't have been as it doesn't have kitchen/ bathroom). I'm just wondering if it is due x3 for next year as an unoccupied property.

    Expenses allowed when selling house

    The business is a small local family one which is being ousted by multi-national retailers. The owner of the unit is currently not interested in agreeing a buy-out. I'm just posting to consider the options involved in subletting. Thanks

    Sub-letting small commercial unit

    The lease contract dates from the 1950s so I would think it is fairly general. Not sure how long is left on the lease but I expect there's another 20+ years as legal advise is that it can be sublet.

    Replacing window & doors on rental

    That's how I thought too. Accountant did ask about a like-for-like replacement if that makes any difference..they replaced windows & doors from 20+ years and expect that triple glazing wasn't available then.

    Renewal of Driving Licence

    Thanks for the replies. I normally try to comply with rules and I still don't understand why a text or email is not sent as a reminder after 10 years that a driving licence or a passport is due for renewal.
