Tax Refund Checklist for Irish Workers Only 5% of employers of Ireland’s remote workforce are paying the tax-free expense of €3.20 per day. This is according to a recent survey from Taxback.com in which 600 people, currently working from home, were asked if their employer is in a position to pay this additional income. The low numbers have prompted the tax experts to call on the thousands of people who now find themselves working from their home office, kitchen table or indeed their bedroom to ensure they claim the e-workers tax relief for which they are eligible, while at the same time, using the opportunity to claim any other reliefs they may be owed from the past 4 years.
