Cut off dates for final 2021 payments

Since the introduction of PAYE Modernisation in January 2019, Revenue have very strict reporting rules for payments made under the PAYE System. For that reason we cannot allow for exceptional payments outside of the scheduled payroll runs.

1. Since the introduction of PAYE Modernisation in January 2019, Revenue have very strict reporting rules for payments made under the PAYE System. For that reason we cannot allow for exceptional payments outside of the scheduled payroll runs. Therefore it is extremely important that you ensure any payment requests are received by Zurich by the cut off dates outlined below.

2. In order to ensure payments are correctly taxed, it is the customers’ responsibility to ensure that the appropriate Tax Credit Certificate is in place for Zurich Life. In line with Revenue guidelines, Zurich will register the payment with Revenue. The customer must then ensure that the appropriate allowances have been allocated to Zurich. The best way to do this is by using Revenue’s MyAccount online service to view the Tax Credit Certificate, and make any required changes. If the customer is unable to use online services, they should contact their local tax office for assistance. The Tax Credit Certificates must be in place by 10/12/2021. Zurich will not be able to issue any refunds if Tax Credit Certificates are received after this date. Any tax refunds due will need to be claimed by the customer directly from the Revenue.
