Claim Your Tax Back Yourself
Take control of your tax refund, I’ll guide you step-by-step so you can do it yourself and keep every cent.
Every year, thousands of people in Ireland overpay tax and many end up handing over part of their refund to companies that offer to claim it for them.
But with the right guidance, you can do it yourself — quickly, easily, and without giving up a cent.
That’s what Remote Bookkeeper is all about.
What you will Learn
You’ll learn how to check if you’re due a refund, what tax credits and reliefs you can claim including rent credit, medical expenses and remote work relief, how to use Revenue’s MyAccount step by step, and what to avoid so your claim is processed smoothly and without delays.
“It is likely that close to half a million PAYE taxpayers missed out on refunds last year — refunds that could total up to €389 million. Over the last four years, that figure may be close to €1.2 billion.”

My Story
Hi, I'm Mairead – a bookkeeper, payroll specialist, and content creator based in beautiful Co. Kerry, Ireland. I’m passionate about helping employees across Ireland understand their taxes and reclaim what they’re owed.
During the pandemic, I launched my Instagram page, @remotebookkeeper, to share clear, jargon-free tips on tax refunds and money management. What started as a passion project quickly grew into a thriving community. I now share content across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, where I’ve built a loyal and growing audience eager to learn how to make the most of their money.
Alongside my course and digital products, I also offer a personal service where I explain your payslip in plain, simple language, so you can finally understand exactly what you’re earning, why, and what tax you’re paying.
I’ve worked tirelessly to build this platform into a business I’m proud to represent, and I absolutely LOVE what I do.
My mission is simple: to empower every employee in Ireland with the knowledge they need to navigate their finances confidently.
