    Paying my son's deposit on home

    Reading down through new responses I feel it is not possible nor feasible for posters to give a full life history behind their query. I tried to keep my query as concise as possible initially without having to explain myself and give family background. I'm quite aware of the fact that...

    Paying my son's deposit on home

    Thank you all for relevant responses. Yes, indeed I only asked advice on my position regarding tax on repayment of this loan.

    Paying my son's deposit on home

    I wish to help my son out as he is about to purchase a new home. However, he does not have the deposit and I am hoping to lend him around €25,000, towards the deposit and doing the house up. He will be paying me back this amount over the coming years interest free. Will I be liable for any tax...

    Vhi pmi 0611

    Vhi pmi 0611

    Reading in the papers yesterday that today is the last day for signing up for the VHI deal PMI 0611. Apparently they are not advertising this deal and if you do stumble across it, it is a bargain. Seems it was intended to draw in more corporate groups and young customers unlikely to need...
