Have you worked in the US this summer, i.e. the summer of 2008 ? If so you can apply for your tax returns as soon as you return to Ireland. All you need to do is remember to submit the following pieces of information:

  • Your W-2 Form from each employer you worked for.
  • A final payslip from each employer.
  • A copy of your SSN (Social Security Number) Card.
  • A copy of your J1 Visa, this should be in your passport.

J1 Tax Returns 2008

The most important forms for your J1 tax claim are :

  • Form W-2, which is a Wage and Tax Statement
  • Final Payslip

If you don’t have your W-2 form anymore TaxBack.com can apply on your behalf to get a new one issued. You need this and your SSN (Social Security Number) when submitting. Remember, that more information you provide, the more likely that your tax back claim will be processed faster. Once you have submitted your details, we will send you out a pack where you can enclose copies of some of the forms.
