AVC - how do I upload proof of paying?

[Ger1966]

Hi all,

I've started to make some AVC's to my pension (outside of my salary).

I received a receipt from the pension provider to confirm the amount that I paid. Do I need to upload this receipt to ROS? If so, where do I do this? I can see a field where I can add the amount of this payment, but there doesn't seem to be a place where I can upload the receipt as proof of payment? The reason I'm asking is because I can upload my medical expenses and utility bills to claim back some tax on them, but I can't see how to do this for my AVC payment.

Thanks (as always)!

Not unless/until they ask.
They usually ask for the PRSA1 (corrected on foot of @GSheehy's post below) PRSA2 cert at some stage if you are claiming tax relief.

If it's a regular contribution contract you are asked to upload the PRSA2 Certificate.

If it's a single contribution there's no requirement to upload on My Account, but they may ask for it later.

Correct.

They rarely ask for it. It's a self assessment system.
