I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that they have public offices in Sligo, Letterkenny, Monaghan and Dundalk that handle a range of queries including those relating to cross-border employments from Irish resident individuals. I am further advised that the majority of queries from Irish resident cross-border workers are relatively straightforward and are resolved without difficulty. Furthermore, the Revenue Commissioners advise that they are not aware of Irish resident cross-border workers experiencing the particular difficulties raised by the Deputy. However if the Deputy has details of individual cases of delays in the payment of tax and family credits administered by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, the taxpayers in question should be advised to contact their local HM Revenue and Customs office.
