As a proprietary director of a company, my entire salary goes through the PAYE system. Recently, when submitting my tax return for 2002, I used Form 12 which is for company directors who pay their tax liabilities through PAYE. Why am I, and many thousands of other salaried directors, ineligible for the annual PAYE tax credit of €660 ? This discrimination which should be addressed in the forthcoming budget.
