Hi,
I find the documentation a little confusing on this topic, so I apologies if this is a ridiculously simple question.
My spouse is a PAYE worker and I am self-employed. I have a question regarding standard rate cutoff.
We are assessed as a married couple. If my spouse only earned 35000 last year, would we be entitled to use the rest of the unused standard rate cutoff to allocate against our 2nd income (my self-employed income)?
Example:
Married standard rate cutoff : 45400
Extra SRCOP for 2nd income: 27400
As our combined incomes are above the 72800 mark, if my spouse earned only 35000, can we then allocate the remaining 37800 SRCOP to the 2nd income (i.e. the self-employed income)?
I plan to ring tax office, but was hopinh I could get some feedback here first, as it may trigger more questions or alternative routes for conversations with the Revenue office.
Thanks in advance
