📢 Important Update: New Revenue Registration Process for Tax Refunds

As of March 2025, Revenue has introduced a new digital system called e-Linking to enhance the security and efficiency of appointing tax agents. This affects how PAYE workers and self-employed individuals authorize agents like Ireland Tax Aid to manage their tax affairs.

Previously, appointing a tax agent involved signing a paper form. Now, with e-Linking:

Digital Authorization: You approve access via your Revenue myAccount (for PAYE workers) or ROS (for self-employed).
More Secure: Only you can authorize agent access, protecting your data.

👥 Who’s Affected?

This applies to:

PAYE Workers (using myAccount)
Self-Employed Individuals (using ROS)
