Your average rate is 8.6% for income tax and 14.5% with USC and PRSI. Each extra euro you earn is taxed at a marginal rate of 27.2%, because all of your salary is inside the €44,000 20% band.

How the tax is worked out

  1. Gross tax: 20% of €35,000 = €7,000.00.
  2. Less tax credits of €4,000 = income tax of €3,000.00.
  3. USC: 0.5% of €12,012 + 2% of €16,688 + 3% of €6,300 = €582.82.
  4. PRSI: 4.2375% of €35,000 (4.2% to 30 September, 4.35% after) = €1,483.13.

Joint assessment only helps when one of you would otherwise pay 40% tax while the other has unused band. On €35,000 you are inside the single band, so joint assessment only helps if your partner earns more than the single cut-off point.
