ROS Pay and File extended deadline to 17th November 2021

ROS Pay and File self assessment Income Tax and Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT) Deadline

Revenue has confirmed that the extended ROS Pay and File deadline is Wednesday, 17th November 2021.  This applies to ROS return filing and payment for self-assessment Income Tax and Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT).  For taxpayers who don’t use ROS to file their tax return and pay their tax bill, the deadline remains 31st October 2021.

For self assessment Income Taxpayers who file their 2020 Form 11 Tax Return and make the appropriate payment through the Revenue Online System in relation to (i) Preliminary Tax for 2021 and/or (ii) the balance of Income Tax due for 2020, the filing date has been extended to Wednesday, 17th November 2021.

This extended deadline will also apply to CAT returns and appropriate payments made through ROS for beneficiaries who receive gifts and/or inheritances with valuation dates in the year ended 31st August 2021.

To qualify for the extension, taxpayers must pay and file through the ROS system. 

In situations where only one of these actions is completed through the Revenue Online System, the extension will not apply.  As a result,  both the submission of tax returns and relevant payments must be made on or before 31st October 2021.

The Revenue Commissioners have confirmed extended opening hours for the ROS Technical Helpdesk and Collector General’s Division in the days leading up to the ROS Pay and File deadline.

On 17th November (Pay & File Deadline) the phone lines of the ROS Technical Helpdesk will operate between 9am and midnight while those of the Collector General will operate from 9am until 8pm.
