I am advised by Revenue that a Tax Credit Certificate in respect of the person in question issued to her employer on 2 November 2018. A copy of the Certificate also issued to the person at her home address.

The Certificate issued on a ‘Week 1 basis’ as Revenue records did not include full information in respect of the person’s employment in 2018 to enable it to be issued on a cumulative basis. The effect of the ‘Week 1 basis’is that the employer applies the revised tax credits and rate band from the date the Certificate is received rather than backdating it to the start of the year.

Revenue has confirmed that it has been in direct contact with the person in question to clarify certain information and a new Tax Credit Certificate, to be applied on a cumulative basis will issue shortly.
