Income Levy Tax Refunds?

There are a number of situations in which you may be due an income levy refund, including if you had a Medical card or earned below an income limit.  Here’s an example of a refund for a Medical  Card holder.

Income Levy Tax Refund Example:

Patricia Andrzejewski  earned 15,000 in 2010 and paid 2% Income Levy.  But she had a Medical Card for part of that year, so was exempt from paying Income Levy and is due a tax refund.  How much will she get back?

Answer:  €15,000 x 2% = €300 paid.  Full Tax Refund of €300 as she had a Medical Card.

Note:  The Income Levy was charged in 2009 & 2010.  If you had a medical card at any stage in those years and worked at all, make sure you claim tax back
