The Universal Social Charge [USC] and PRSI - Budget
2010
The Universal Social Charge[USC] came into effect
on the 1st January 2011 and applies to all individuals
if their gross income exceeds the threshold of €4,004
per annum (€77 per week). Once you exceed this
limit then you pay on the full amount.
However, the USC does not apply to Childminders who
are eligible to claim the Childminder's Tax Relief of
€15,000 per annum as they derive their income from
a source that is classified as exempt income.
