I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that, in the case raised by the Deputy, the 2013 LPT Return was issued to an address previously used by Revenue to contact the person in question in respect of other taxes. The person in question subsequently received the paper Return but duplicated the filing process by firstly filing online, paying the ‘Valuation Band 3’ estimated amount, and then returning the paper LPT 1 form indicating ‘Valuation Band 1’

Revenue has confirmed that it has contacted the person in question and is satisfied that the ‘Band 3’ declaration arose through genuine error. The person’s details have been amended on the Property Register to reflect ‘Band 1’. The correction resulted in an overpayment of the person’s 2013 liability, which has been partly offset to her 2014 liability. The remaining balance will be refunded to her in the coming days.
