tax calculation please! :-)

Good morning all

I am currently in a full time job, earning 26,500 a year.

My question is: how much would my weekly wage be (after taxes) if I was to go part time?

Single, no children, standard tax credits

Would I be entitled so nay social welfare supplements and a medical card?

many thanks

what do you mean by part-time?
how many days and hours a week do you work?
how many days and hours would you work part-time?
would your part time pay be exactly pro-rata on your full time payment?

what do you mean by part-time? I would work 2 or 3 days
how many days and hours a week do you work? 40
how many days and hours would you work part-time? 2 or 3 days (16 or 24 hours)
would your part time pay be exactly pro-rata on your full time payment? yes

Thanks a lot!

On a 2 day week, you'd take home about €196.85.
On a 3 day week, you'd take home about €292.75

If you have enough stamps, and the reduction in hours is because your employer is reducing your hours rather than you doing it and you are looking for and available for work on those days, then you will be entitled to jobseekers' benefit. The amount you'd get if reduced to 2 days is about €117.60 and if you work three days, it'd be €78.40.

If you don't have sufficient stamps, you'd be means tested for social welfare and I don't know what the income levels are.

In any case, if your total salary for the year falls below €26,000, you will be entitled to reclaim any health levy you have paid so far this year. This can be done after the year end using form prsiref1 (available on www.welfare.ie).
