I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the person concerned submitted a claim of €226 relating to medical expenses for 2011. Relief is available at the standard rate of tax, which was 20% in 2011. Therefore the person concerned was entitled to 20% of €226, which amounts to €45 and this is the refund he received as per PAYE Balancing Statement that issued on 15 February 2012.
