Why? My question is surely the date on his payslip should match the date when he's paid?

We never know what day he is going to be paid! It changes every pay period. It's supposed to be every 4 weeks but sometimes it's 4 weeks + 2 days or 4 weeks + 1 day etc. When you're tight on funds, it's nice to know whether he'll be paid today, tomorrow or Wednesday!

Well then there's an issue because he's being paid late each time. He used to be paid fortnightly. That changed to 4-weekly at the start of the year. No amended contract of employment was issued...

My OH was 'paid' today. He's paid every 4 weeks and his payslip is emailed to him on a Monday. The 'Date of Pay' is always listed as the Monday. So today's payslip gives today's date as his date of pay. However, it doesn't hit our bank account until Tuesday or Wednesday. In January, his...

That sounds fantastic Sybil. I’d love to have a look at the template if you wouldn’t mind sending it?

Thanks. No point changing direct debits as my husband is paid every 4 weeks meaning it’s a different stage of the month as the year goes on. In January it started off being the start of the month, in March it was the 20th…that’s the issue I’m facing.

Thanks that’s exactly the reply I’m looking for! Nobody else has picked up that with 4 weekly payments, you end up being paid at different stages of the month so no point changing direct debits around as my husbands salary could hit the account early, mid or late month as the year progressed...

Thanks, yes it’s fixed amounts but for my husband’s salary,‘it’s a different date every month. The four weeks sometimes falls at the start of the month, sometimes mid month and sometimes at the end of the month. I have a budget account with the credit union. Every expense for the year is added...

Thanks - he gets the same amount every 4 weeks. So if I add his 4 weeks to my 1 month and take that as our monthly income then. So his salary then needs to last me from 20th March to end of April technically. That's not happening unfortunately and we're living pay packet to pay packet...

The issue isn't the amounts. I know how to add up all my expenditure for the month and incomings. It's the timings. In an ideal world, I want to start off the month with us both being paid on the 1st. Say 5K. I list all my outgoings and it comes to €4,800 for example. I can now say to...

Thanks for your reply. No we don't have capacity for a float. I wouldn't know how much to have in it anyway as I can't work out how much we have spare due to the different payment dates if that makes sense?

I'm having some issues budgeting for the month due to my husband's pay schedule. I am paid monthly on the last working day of each month. He is paid every 4 weeks (this started in January). The majority of our bills, loans, mortgage etc are paid monthly. I have a list of incomings and...

Error message still there this morning grrrr

Thanks ClubMan, if you want to claim health and working from home expenses in real time (a new feature this year), you need to upload then to the website. It's only if you're claiming annually as part of your income tax return that you don't have to upload them. The new system allows you to...

Hi I'm trying to claim medical and working from home expenses in real time. I've uploaded my receipts and every time I go to claim, I get the following error message on the revenue.ie site. It's driving me mad! Is this a general problem with the website does anyone know?

Thanks Peanuts - I'll give it another few days so..

I applied online on Thursday evening to open a new BoI current account (currently with Ulster Bank). I received an email confirmation stating that if approved, they would text me my new IBAN etc within 'one working day'. It's now Wednesday and still nothing. Just wondering did anyone else...

Hi I work for a large public sector body and am paid monthly (I'm a permanent employee). My nett salary each month fluctuates quite a lot and I am getting really fed up with it. I have been told that this is because I am taxed on a cumulative or 'Year to Date' basis. However, I have checked...

Many thanks Steven - yes my husband would be paying the €2000 into the PRSA so my question was in relation to how much it would cost the employer to top this up....

Thanks Brendan, that makes sense
