Information on Tax Relief
How does it work?
If you require home care our dedicated team will support you every step of the way:
Great Care Co-op care team will talk you through the process during a free Care Consultation
Tax relief can be claimed by the bill payer at their marginal rate of tax (either 20% or 40%)
You fill out a form called the HK1 ‘Claim for an Allowance for Employing a Carer’.
Then you can claim tax relief at the end of the year, or monthly through your pay. You don’t have to wait until the end of the year
If you are not working or paying tax, you can receive this cash back through other members of your family up to a total of €75,000 at their marginal tax rate.
This could be your husband or wife’s pay, or a brother or a sister, or your son or daughter’s pay or your son-in-law or daughter-in-law’s pay. You simply put the bill for your care in their name and then they can claim the cash back through their salary.
How do I apply for tax relief?
To apply for tax relief please complete the HK1 Form. This form allows you to claim a tax allowance if you are caring for a relative or spouse who is deemed incapacitated due to physical or mental infirmity. A relative includes a relation by marriage and a person in respect of whom the claimant is or was the legal guardian.
