It's was a 10,000 euro contribution so I was hoping for a tax refund of circa 4,000.

PAYE customers who are required to file an income tax return (Form 12) for 2022 and who opt to file online, can avail of the extended deadline for ROS Pay and File returns. Otherwise, the deadline is 31 October 2023.
 
@Paye_pap , something similar happened to me and a few others. If you complain through 'My Enquiries' you should be able to get it corrected.

Claiming for AVC lump sums

In the last couple of years I made some AVC lump sums to my company pension, around October time, and claimed tax relief by submitting a tax return. I'm pretty sure the tax return was made for the *previous* full year. Now I've done the same, but revenue contacted me to say I'm too late to...

Thanks everyone,

Very helpful. Below is the correspondence from revenue when I sent an enquiry.

I refer to your recent correspondence.

I wish to advise that when you use Revenue Online Service (ROS), the deadlines for paying contributions and making this choice are extended.

ROS is for businesses and for individuals who are registered for business related taxes. Business related taxes include Income Tax, Value Added Tax (VAT), Relevant Contracts Tax (RCT), Employers PAYE (PAYE-Emp) among others.

As you are assessed under the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax head the extension is not available.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

The person who sent you this reply is wrong.

https://www.revenue.ie/en/tax-professionals/ebrief/2018/no-1902018.aspx See the final point which also says MyAccount, the service for non-business users.

Revenue eBrief No. 98/17 says the same thing.

I'd go back to them and refer to those eBrief numbers.
