Tax Credit on Higher Educational Qualifications

The benefit consists of a tax exemption on employment income which may be claimed by way of a tax credit. It applies to individuals who complete the relevant course of studies in 2018 or later. Where the individual pursues the relevant course of studies on a part-time basis, the tax credit is reduced by 50%. A reduction in the tax credit applies also where the course of studies was commenced before 2017. In the case of a Masters, the tax credit is available against the tax on income earned during the year that follows that in which the course is completed. In the case of a PhD it is available for two successive years. An individual who obtains a Masters and claims the tax credit for one year, and later obtains a PhD, may claim the tax credit for a further year. Otherwise, the tax credit may be claimed only once.
