How do you do this if AVC are deducted from salary each month ? Is it just a case of reclaiming from the Dept ? What form should be used ? Presumably then this mechanism could also be used for regular pension contributions, assuming one stays inside the age related limits for the relevant year.
I tried this before a few years back when there was a reduction in paye tax rates but give up as Revenue could not understand what I was trying to do. I had already got relief in year N for AVCs via monthly payroll but wanted to set my AVCs from Jan to Oct in year N off against year N-1 as the top rate was higher then.
