Did mine yesterday , easy peasy.

May I ask what exchange rate you used? Thanks

[darrow]

I was quoted 1.14 on some site, it I can't remember which one!

[daveg]

Went to taxisnet.....no notification that tax return is ready to be submitted.... perhaps they let you know alphabetically?

[jandk]

So long as you have registered you just log in with username and password hit 2017 and enter your data. I used 1.14 exchange rate. Once the calculation completed it said that I was due a refund of 6 cents !

Just finished completing form and on final page [self assessment ] there is now a SCD calculation I've not seen before !
On the 'income' columns for both A&B semesters an amount has been entered for interest and 'contribution' calculation for both.
Before I proceed can anybody explain this to me ?

I have tried to complete my electronic tax return but it just comes up with errors.

It wants me to enter details of my employment in the Republic even though I have never been employed in the Republic. The Tax Return comes prerecorded with a Taxpayer's Classification of 09 Pensioner.
PART 4 - TABLE A
Error Row 1. CODE is required.
Error Row 1. PERIOD(months) is required.
Error Declare your employment for the remaining period.

It also doesn't like my pension amounts no matter how I enter it.
PART 4 - TABLE B
Error Row 1. Field PENSION AMOUNT must be number with maximum 9 digits and 2 fractional digits. Positive numbers do not need a sign.
Error Row 2. Field PENSION AMOUNT must be number with maximum 9 digits and 2 fractional digits. Positive numbers do not need a sign.

Anybody have any bright suggestions ?

Cheers
