    Hi if I made a loss on the sale of shares in 2009, but did not complete a return, can I use these losses against gains I have made in 2012?

    Income tax PAYE wife Self Employed

    Thanks - I have claimed the PAYE allowance for myself. My understanding is that because my wife's income is not PAYE it cannot be claimed as it is not a transferrable allowance. I am just putting her income as 'fees', as it so small - is this correct. I don't think there is much point doing...

    Income tax PAYE wife Self Employed

    I should add that I think the SRCOP is not being increased - the system is allowing €45400 at 20%, I thought that we would be allowed up to an additional €27400 at 20% (the increase), so the €1.6K should be charged at 20%?

    ARF rule changes 2011

    Just one point to make on the AMRF - my understanding is that the minimum income requirment is now €18K, but a change to the rules for AMRF is that if you meet this income requirement before age 75, you can convert the AMRF to an ARF. In the past the AMRF was not available until 75.

    Is it possible to transfer one pension fund to another one?

    It is not likely this will be allowed - the Self Employed pension is established on the RAC regulations and these did not allow transfers to occupational type arrangements.

    Home Home Insurance and Classes in the home

    Thanks for the reply. To be honest, that all seems a bit excessive and bureaucratic for what will be a very small business, generating income of approx €5K per annum. If I was to become a home worker - i.e. do work for my employer at home, would the same apply? The only solution seems to be to...

    Home Home Insurance and Classes in the home

    Hi My wife is considering holding classes for up to 5 children at a time, 3 days a week, in our home. Do we need to obtain additional insurance to cover this activity or would we be covered under our standard home insurance? If so, where is the best place to get this kind of insurance...

    Are AVC funds guaranteed by government?

    It depends on what fund you have selected. In general AVCs and other pension investments are not guaranteed by the government. However if you have AVCs in a cash/deposit fund and that cash fund has the majority of its investments in Irish Banks (i understand the Irish Life one does), then by...

    2 options: Take the loss and switch to cash or Wait out for another few years to try and claw back some of the losses. It depends on whether the beneficiary intended retiring at 65 or can wait until later to try and claw back losses.

    When should my company write to me about my pension?

    You also note that it is within two months (8 weeks) of the trustee being notified by the company that you have left. If the administrator is not informed, then that's where it can fall down.

    Personal financial retrenchment: Practical ideas welcomed

    Re: Personal financial retrenchment On the house insurance - remember that building costs have gone down, therefore you might be able to reduce the required cover and so then premium. Other savings: Do you need the monthly mobile? I think I would only top up by €20 every 8 weeks, but pay...

    Penalty points for no NCT.

    Wife's car failed today due to misaligned lights. Will be fixing on Friday, but looks like a test date won't be available until well into May. I have to say I find this rush to NCT very frustrating - those who abide by the law and do the right thing by arranding their NCT in advance are now...
