In this situation, part of the mortgage interest may be claimed as a normal interest credit against your personal income tax. However, the balance of the interest may not be claimed as a rental deduction. The mortgage interest applicable to the let part of the house will be determined on a just and reasonable basis. For example, the apportionment of the interest may be by reference to the number of rooms let. » Back to Top 5. Does residence only mean a house?

How much tax relief will I get? Tax relief is granted on the amount of the interest paid, at the standard rate subject to the overall limits as set out in Leaflet IT60 (Home Loan Interest Relief - 2000/2001 onwards) . Special provisions apply for "First Time Buyers". The period for which relief is available is 7 years (this does not apply to mortgages taken out before 6 April 1998). » Back to Top 9. How can I claim the relief? From 1 January 2002, tax relief for home mortgage interest is no longer given through the tax system but is instead granted at source. This means that your mortgage lender gives you the benefit of the tax relief element on the mortgage interest on behalf of the Revenue Commissioners. Your mortgage repayment is reduced by the amount of the tax relief. Your lender in turn claims this amount from Revenue. Any future adjustments in the tax relief (for example, arising from changes in interest rates) will be made automatically by the lender on behalf of Revenue. It is not be necessary to claim mortgage interest relief in the annual tax return, and it no longer appears on your Notice of Tax Credits. Borrowers who are taking out new mortgages must complete a TRS1 form. Your lender will supply you with a TRS1 form. Forms can also be obtained from the TRS Section, Collector-Generals, Sarsfield House, Francis Street, Limerick. Further details are available on the Leaflet TRS (Mortgage Interest Tax Relief at Source) . » Back to Top 10. If I sell my house will I have to pay Capital Gains Tax? No. If the house (including grounds of up to one acre) has been occupied as your sole or main residence throughout your period of ownership you will be exempt from capital gains tax on the sale. » Back to Top 11. What happens if I had let part of the house or used part of the house for business purposes? Full exemption may not be due if only part of the house has been used as your residence. In this case an apportionment will be made to arrive at the exempt portion of the total gain and you will have to pay capital gains tax on the balance. » Back to Top 12. What happens if my property has "development value"? Where your property has development value i.e. if it is sold for a price higher than its normal current use value then the relief from capital gains tax as outlined above is confined to what it would be if the property did not have development value. » Back to Top
