I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that no demands have issued to the taxpayer since this matter was previously raised in October 2013. The tax record has been amended appropriately however, as outlined in the previous response, the balance will remain on record and the taxpayer should contact the Collector General's in the event of a material change in circumstances influencing his ability to pay.

However, the taxpayer has since applied for a Tax Clearance Certificate, and as there is a tax return outstanding for 2012, the Tax Clearance certificate did not issue. The outstanding balance was listed among the reasons for non-issue of the Tax Clearance Certificate, but the outstanding return was in fact the deciding factor. The tax payer should contact Mr. Eugene Larkin, Revenue House, Blackpool, Cork at 021-6027262 or by e-mail at to discuss the outstanding return and Tax Clearance application.
