the amount of Income Tax and Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) you have paid for the four years before your purchase or self-build.
Applicants that made a HTB application under the original scheme, may satisfy the enhanced HTB requirements. They should cancel their original HTB application and reapply to avail of the increased relief.
