The paper version of 2009 Income Tax return; Form 11/Form 11E, must be filed no later than 31 October 2010.  As this date falls on a Sunday, Revenue has announced that certain arrangements will apply.

Over the course of the weekend of 31 October, returns and payments may be dropped in to the post boxes in Sarsfield House, Francis Street, Limerick.  Revenue has advised that there will be no facility to acknowledge receipt of deliveries, however, customised receipts will issue in all cases when payments have been processed.  All such returns received by 9:00 am on Monday 1 November will be deemed as meeting the filing deadline.

As in previous years, returns with a postmarked date of 31 October will also be deemed as meeting the filing deadline.

Customers using Revenue On-line Service (ROS) to both file and pay have until midnight 16th November 2010.  There is still time to register for ROS to take advantage of the extension mentioned above. ROS is the easiest and quickest way to meet all your tax obligations.
