Revenue has updated its Tax and Duty Manual on Phased Payment Arrangements (PPA). The guidance now reflects the enhanced PPA system that allows for PPA consolidation. It also sets out temporary changes to PPA during Covid-19 which remain in place.
Previously taxpayers were unable to add additional liabilities to their existing PPA. However, the ability to add extra periods to a PPA has become a necessity because of the need to incorporate warehoused debt into a PPA at the end of the Debt Warehouse Period 2. The enhanced PPA system allows for PPA consolidation, providing taxpayers greater flexibility in the management of their PPA. Taxpayers can apply for PPA consolidation on ROS.
