We contacted Revenue on the evening of Tuesday 23rd September with members’ reports of difficulties with filing CT1s via ROS on that evening. On enquiry with Revenue, we gather that less than 100 taxpayers were affected.

Revenue have confirmed with us that there were technical issues with ROS and some taxpayers affected have been charged a late filing surcharge when the CT1 was filed the next day, 24th September.

Revenue have also advised that where the Form CT1 could not be filed due to ROS technical issues, and a late filing surcharge has been applied, that contact should be made with the relevant Tax District to have the surcharge waived. A note has been circulated to Revenue personnel advising how to deal with such enquiries.
