    Mortgage interest relief

    You would have been entitled to it since 2006 however you may be entitled to a larger band after marriage. Which I think is your point. I'm not sure if your new spouse will qualify as you originally purchased the property as a "single" person. I'm not sure how this interaction goes through on...

    CAT - Principal Residence Exemption & Living Rent Free

    Why make things complicated if the house is run down. Why not get the property valued and see what the property is actually worth. Say its worth 45k and none of the nephews group b threshold is used as yet that would mean that 45k - 3k - 32.5K = 9.5K is taxable at 33%. That will give a tax...

    Retain profits in company to make investments?

    Be careful to structure it correctly in order not to lose your Retirement Relief entitlement. Retirement relief in the two trading co's would probably be best with a share buy back (with succession) or a liquidation at retirement(cessation). This is unless you want to set up the investment...

    Accountant's fee/ standard practice query

    An accountant isn't going to chase you. 800 seems very reasonable for accounts and tax returns 500 + 300 I assume that is ex VAT. Including VAT is extremely cheap. Probably even a little too cheap but that would depend on the level of transactions etc. I'm afraid at that sort of fee your not...

    Irish tax in the Uk

    Just to clarify, I assume the company you are invoicing is the UK entity which you are working for and not your own company. I also assume that whey you say you "set up a company" you mean you set up a limited liability company and not a business name or similar. €37,500 for services...

    Practically speaking at 154E per week 8k per annum you are not even using up your personal credits so the OPF tax credit is doing you no good. If you start earning above 16,500e per year then you will be using up your full personal tax credits. Removing your OPF tax credit on this basis won't...

    Bik Company Car

    You pay tax on 30% of the market value of say 22k. That is 6,600 of a BIK of which you will pay approx 3,300 in tax. 3,300 for full use of a car alone is a very cheap car IMHO. Nevermind with a fuel card, tax, insurance service tyres etc. Tax, insurance, maintenance and tyres alone are 2,000 odd...
