When a couple get married either in church or register office is Revenue automatically informed about their change in status or is it the responsibility of the individuals to notify Revenue? I presume it is the couple's decision whether or not they wish to be treated jointly or individually for tax purposes but am not 100% certain??
 


Joint assessment

Absolutely no chance of Revenue being informed!!

The tax system is called self assessed for a reason. Its up to You to correctly inform Revenue, to pay correct amount. Overpaying Revenue, they don't mind at all if you don't claim your correct allowances e.g. Joint assessed or both taxed as individuals, you need to do your own homework.
That said its not complicated and well worth time.
 
Thanks guys for your replies. It will require careful consideration but as you say, fidelcastro, well worth the time and effort.
