I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a revised Tax Credit and Universal Social Charge Certificate issued to the persons concerned on 13 January 2012. This revised Certificate, which included the tax exemption credit, adjusted the allocation of tax credits against the respective incomes of the persons concerned so as to maximize their benefit to the taxpayers.

Revised certificates have also issued to the pension providers. This will allow the pension providers to refund any excess tax deducted since 1 January 2012 in accordance with the commitment made by Revenue to rectify such cases very quickly.
