The filing deadline for the Local Property Tax was 28th May 2013.
However the Revenue have announced that outstanding returns that are filed before 1 July 2013 will avoid incurring interest and penalties.
According to the Revenue, 1.55 million Local Property Tax Returns had been filed by 24th June 2013
Employers of those who opted to pay by deduction at source from salary/ocupational pension should receive the tax credit certificates instructing them to commence the deduction of Local Property tax from 1st July 2013.
The Revenue will start sending out letters to non-filers by the end of June giving them seven days to reply.
If the return is not filed, the Revenue estimate will be the liable figure.
The estimated amount is not a full and final settlement of the LPT liability.
The liable person is still obliged to file an LPT Return and the liability to LPT in respect of this property will be reviewed if you do not file the Return. Failure to do so may also result in the imposition of a penalty.
