Your employer will provide Revenue with your pay and tax details and your leaving date.
A claim for unemployment repayment can be made:
1. Immediately if emergency tax was applied in your last employment.
2. Immediately if you are leaving Ireland permanently.
3. Four weeks after becoming unemployed if you are not receiving any other taxable income
4. Eight weeks after becoming unemployed if you are receiving other taxable income such as Jobseekers Benefit.
To claim a refund:
Sign in to my account and select ‘Claim unemployment repayment’ on the PAYE Services card.
If you are not e-enabled, you can complete a form P50 and send it to your Revenue office.
The taxable amount of some social welfare payments are taken into account when calculating tax refunds.
