My wife and are jointly-assessed under PAYE.
Apart from our employments, we expect to receive a once-off Irish deposit interest >5k (DIRT paid at source) on a joint deposit account.
Would we declare this on Form 11 or 12? As its a joint account would this be treated as 5k+/2 (ie 2.5k each) and so below the 5k threshold, implying Form12?
 
You would use Form 11.

 
Form 12 may well suffice if it's a once-off.

If you're filing Form 12, do so asap. This will enable you to later file Form 11 before the applicable deadline in October/November in case Revenue end up insisting on it. (I suspect the chances of that are unlikely.)
