It is worth keeping track of the progress of your tax account and the items booked. The electronic query of your tax account can help you do this. It is particularly advisable to check after submitting the tax returns that the data has been correctly recorded by the NTCA and to check after each payment that it has been entered in the tax account. It may also be useful to check the balance before certain procedures and claims (such as requesting a tax certificate), as it is advisable to pay any outstanding items before the procedure.
