While Revenue encourages taxpayers to avail of its easy to use on-line channels to file tax returns and make associated payments, it continues to facilitate any persons who may have difficulty in using these options, for example due to disability or to limited broadband access, by making hard-copy returns available to them.

It is not clear from the Deputy’s question which tax type he is referring to or whether he is aware of an individual taxpayer who is experiencing difficulties. If the Deputy wishes to provide further information to Revenue, it has assured me it will follow up on the matter and make every effort to solve any difficulties being encountered.
