Single Parent Tax Credit

If you care for a child on your own, you may be able to claim the Single Person Child Carer Credit (SPCCC).

This child may be::

• Your own child
• An adopted child
• Any child that you support and maintain at your own expense.
• Child who lives with you and on whose services you depend due to your old age or infirmity

Only one parent or guardian of a child can claim the SPCCC in a tax year. You may only claim one credit, even if you care for more than one child. This credit came into effect on 1 January 2014. The value of this tax credit is €1,650 per year.
