DEADLINE FOR MPOTS. The 2022 reporting period starts at the beginning of April and ends at the beginning of June. Discover the main dates not to be missed this year.
[Mis à jour le 28 mars 2022 à 15h41] The tax return is a tax obligation for all taxpayers. It allows the tax authorities to calculate the exact amount of income tax for which you are liable for the tax year. In view of what you have already paid for last year via the withholding tax, the tax authorities then determine whether you are liable for an income tax balance in September or whether, conversely, you benefit from a tax refund in the summer. This year, the reporting period starts on April 7, 2022 and definitely ends on June 8, 2022a tolerance applying to accounting firms.
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.

Taxpayers who use the paper form have up to May 18, 2022, at midnight, to submit their income tax return, postmarked, 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.
