Manage your receipts with the receipts tracker

You can upload and view your receipts data by using the Receipts Tracker service in myAccount or Revenue Online Service (ROS). The receipts and images you upload will be available to assist you when completing your Income Tax Return. You can also claim tax credits in real time for health expenses paid and uploaded in the current year. 

If you upload your receipts and images, you will not need to keep the original receipts. If you do not upload your receipt image(s) to the Receipts Tracker service, you need to keep the original receipts for six years.

The Receipts Tracker service can be accessed through:

• myAccount under the 'PAYE Services' and 'Manage My Record' cards
• and
• ROS under the 'Other Services' section.

You can upload receipt details and images under the following categories:

• Health
• Remote Working Relief  (for 2020 onwards). 
• Rental
• Stay and Spend Tax Credit (from 1 October 2020 to 30 April 2021).
• Trade
• Other expenses and documentation.

Note

You may need to complete an Income Tax Return in order to claim tax credits or tax reliefs. Your Income Tax Return is located under the "Review your tax" link in myAccount.

The type of information that you will need to include will depend on the nature of the expense and the year it was paid. For example, it is mandatory to include a receipt image for Health and Remote Working expenses paid from 2021 onwards.

You can upload receipt details and images in Receipts Tracker, by following these steps:

1. Select ‘Add New Receipt’.

5. When you have completed uploading your receipt image(s) and all mandatory information, please select ‘Add receipt’.
6. You will then receive an on-screen notification that your receipt(s) have been added successfully.
