TAX DATE 2022. The General Directorate of Public Finance has refunded the overpaid income tax. For who ? Did you receive it ? We take stock this Thursday, July 21.
[Updated Jul 21, 2022 07:56 AM] Refund done! This Thursday, July 21, 2022, as planned, the tax authorities reimbursed most of the taxpayers affected by an overpayment of taxes last spring. The refund was paid this morning, early, under the heading “REMB TAX REVENUES” or “DGFIP FINANCES PUBLIQUES”. Take a quick look at your bank account to see if everything is in order. Attention, the transfer could also arrive this afternoon depending on your bank. A second date for the payment of the reimbursement is also planned: Tuesday, August 2, 2022.
But then, who is really affected by this refund of income tax? This regularization? In reality, two categories of taxpayers. First, those whose withholding tax was greater than the final amount of their tax. Then, those who were waiting for a return of tax credit (work from home, childcare). Good to know, if the tax authorities do not know your bank details, don’t panic. The refund will reach you within a few weeks, by post via a check. Please note that in the event of a problem with your online tax account, it is quite possible to modify your bank details via the “manage my withholding tax” tool in your private space on the tax website.
To declare online, you must connect to your private space with your tax number and your password. If you do not yet have a password, enter your tax number, your online access number and your reference tax income. You will find these identifiers on the tax return received in April (tax number and online access number) and on the tax notice received in August N-1 (reference tax income).
If you have forgotten your tax number or your password, on the authentication screen, the procedures allow you to recover your identifiers.
Once authenticated, select the “Declare my income” service. Your online declaration will be pre-filled with information known to the administration. All you have to do is verify your marital status, your address and the pre-filled amounts. You can correct them if necessary. Then, you will complete the other income you have received and the charges, reductions or tax credits to which you are entitled. Don’t forget to sign your online declaration for it to be taken into account.
The deadline for online taxes on impots.gouv.fr depends exclusively on your department number. In total, three zones have been determined by the tax authorities. Here are the deadlines that applied this year:
Taxpayers who use the paper form have until May 31, 2022, at midnight, to send their tax return, the postmark being authentic, regardless of their place of residence. The deadline is therefore the same for everyone. As a reminder, only taxpayers who do not have Internet access or who do not have the capacity to use digital tools can still use the paper form. Internet tax filing is now mandatory.
