Hi
My wife is currently on maternity leave and we are assessing if its worth our while her returning to work.
I earn about 60k per annum and she earns about 26k per annum. Am I correct in saying that in the new year, if she doesnt return to work I can make use of the following??
1. An increased standard rate band up to 42800 euro (amounting to 1800 euro)
2. Her Paye tax credit of 1650euro
3. Home carers credit of 810 euro
A grand total of 4260 extra in my hand? Is there anything else im missing that we can claim??
Also we are currently separately assessed and I claim back her unused standard rate band at te end of the year. Will I also get back her unused PAYE tax credit this year?? She has been off since March.
Thanks
