    KBC goodwill cheque cashing conundrum

    Not sure that would work when "account payee only" is on the cheque, but nothing to lose trying it, AFAIK Revolut do not take cheques.

    KBC goodwill cheque cashing conundrum

    My son and daughter-in-law received cheques from KBC. The problem is they have moved to Switzerland and no longer have any bank accounts in Ireland. The cheques are marked "account payee only". Revolut do not accept cheques and UBS, their bank in Switzerland, will charge 65CHF to lodge each...

    Fixed Income Bond, as safe as State Savings Cert?

    You are right, I do need more details. Maybe my maths are screwy? 50000 invested, 3% annual return = 1500, minus 150 (0.3% admin fee,) = 1350, minus 270 (20% tax) = 1080 annual return which is 2.16% of 50k Don't know usc or prsi would also apply

    Fixed Income Bond, as safe as State Savings Cert?

    If Morgan Stanley were to default it looks like I would be dependong on the German Deposit Guarantee Scheme to get funds back. That would be up to €100k if this is considered a deposit, or €20k if considered investment business. possible further risk.

    Fixed Income Bond, as safe as State Savings Cert?

    It seems there is also a 0.3% admin fee, so for a 20% taxpayer like me I calculate a nett return of 2.16% p.a. So just over twice the return on State Savings.

    Fixed Income Bond, as safe as State Savings Cert?

    Broker Solutions are currently offering a Fixed Income Bond with 100% capital guarantee, 3% p.a. for 3 years, gross, subject to income tax, 20% in my case. I have funds in 5 year State Savings Certs giving 1% p.a. nett. It looks to be a no-brainer to cash in the Certs now, which have various...

    Can I get a Capital Gains CG1 Form for 2020 year?

    My experience in the past is that the form becomes available to download around the end of March each year, probably no rush to make it available since it does not have to be filed until the end of October.

    Can Form 11 be used to get DIRT refund?

    Hello, does anyone know if entering DIRT information in the "Irish Deposit Interest" section of 2019 Form 11 will automatically give a refund of DIRT deducted at source? My spouse was 65 in 2019, our 2019 joint income is less that €36,000, I got DE1 declaration forms into most banks in 2019...

    Is there an arguement FOR early retirement in DB scheme?

    Is there an actuarial benefit in taking early retirement in a Defined Benefit scheme? Consider someone who could retire at 65 with a pension of €16,000 p.a., if that person retired at 62 they would get a pension of €14,000 p.a.. So for the three years before age 65 they would receive €14k x 3 =...

    How does Executor file CGT return for the estate

    I sent a letter to my local tax office, I considered this was wiser than calling in, considering the limited hours they are open to the public, and I reckoned a letter had a better chance of finding a person in the know, than I would at the counter. I explained I was executor administering the...

    How does Executor file CGT return for the estate

    Thanks Brendan. Knowing that should ease the process greatly for me. Contracts of Sale have not been signed yet, so it could be a month or more before I get to contact Revenue.

    How does Executor file CGT return for the estate

    The asset being disposed of is still in the estate under administration, the proceeds will be distributed to the beneficiaries after the estate has paid the CGT, that's why Form 1 seems more applicable. than CG1, and should keep the matter seperate from my own tax affairs. I am already a ROS...
