Revenue has said over 400,000 workers in receipt of PUP or the wage top-up will begin to receive tax bills this morning.

Revenue has said that they are aware of "intermittent issues" with their online services as thousands of PAYE workers have logged on to check if they have received a tax bill in relation to the Temporary Wage Subsidy Scheme (TWSS) and the Pandemic Unemployment Payment (PUP).

The payments were not taxed in real-time and instead are liable to income tax and universal social charge (USC) at the end of the year.
