Tax Effective Giving
Your signature alone can make an amazing difference
The Revenue Commissioners allow Irish charities to claim back the tax portion on individual donations of €250 or more, in any tax year, as long as you're a PAYE only tax payer.
An annual donation of €250 could generate an extra
- €62.50 at the standard 20% PAYE rate
- €173.72 at the higher 41% PAYE rate
All we need is your signature
Just imagine how much more good we could do if every ActionAid Ireland supporter signed and returned their tax forms. If you don't sign and return the charity tax forms, the money remains with the Revenue and will be spent in accordance with current government policies.
What to do next
- Sign the tax forms we posted out to you in March and September this year. Make sure you sign each form, write in your PPSN, and tick your tax band.
- Then return the forms in the FREEPOST envelope to ActionAid Ireland, 16-17 Lower O'Connell St, Dublin 1. Using a stamp will save us money.
- If you can't find the correspondence from us you can Download your tax form here. Call Veronica on (01) 8787 911 to confirm the amount of your donation for each year you've generously dontated. She'll tell you what to fill in: name, address, PPS number along with your signature.
- Once you return your completed forms to us, we will deal with the revenue directly.
Signing costs you nothing and filling out these charity tax forms does not affect your tax siutation in any way.
