Question (7)

just wondering if anyone knows where I could go to find out information about working in the North and living in the Republic.
I have been applying for lots of jobs in Derry as its the closest big town to me (i do apply here as well).
Tried looking online but it's not something that is easy to find info on and would have to get offered a job to find out I am going to run into problems.

dont know what exactly your lookin for.. but googled your question...

Income tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) are chargeable on all income earned by individuals in the tax year subject to certain exceptions and exemptions. An employee's tax is deducted by their employer, through the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) system. Self-employed individuals are responsible for paying their own tax through the Self Assessment system
Income Tax on earnings, pensions and benefits

Income Tax is payable on:

your wages if you're employed
the profits from your business if you're self-employed
your State Pension and any private pensions
some benefits e.g. Jobseeker's Allowance, Carer's Allowance and Incapacity Benefit

If you live in one jurisdiction and work in another you may potentially have income tax liability both where you live and where you work.

Southern residents working in the North

Will pay tax directly to HMRC
Will be required to submit an annual Self Assessment return to the Irish

Thanks folks
I was chatting to someone who said that if I work in north I would have to claim child allowance in the north but I can't even open a bank account as I don't have an address. So guess I'm worried about me been a lone parent and how working in the North would effect me, I know the rules for here.
