Hi,
I'd be grateful for any advice on the following..
I started contributing to a PRSA in December 2008 having started working in my present job in July 2008. I was not working Jan to June 2008. I contributed the max possible (15% - €750) of salary for my age (29) for Dec 2008 to obtain the available tax relief. My salary is 60K.
I now have some spare cash and was thinking of making an additional contribution to my PRSA.
I've read that you can make contributions to a PRSA upto 31 October 2009 for the year 2008.
Can I..
1. make an additional contribution to my PRSA for 2008?
2. claim tax relief on the additional contribution?
3. how much can I contribute?
4. how do I make the contribution? my pension contributions are done through my companys payroll. do I just send in a cheque for the additional amount?
5. how do I claim the tax relief?
thanks.
