TAX DEADLINE 2022. The start of the declarative campaign is approaching. Deadline, online or paper declaration, all the information in our dedicated article.
[Mis à jour le 31 mars 2022 à 09h15] The launch of the 2022 reporting period is fast approaching. The launch date has been official recently. You will be able to complete your tax return from Thursday, April 7 This year. This tax return allows the tax authorities to calculate the amount of income tax for which you are liable for the 2021 tax year. It also allows you to determine whether you are liable for a balance of tax on the income with regard to what you have already paid last year. Conversely, you can also benefit from a refund which will take place during the summer. Remember that all taxpayers are required to complete the tax return, despite the introduction of the withholding tax since 2019. The deadline? the June 8, 2022.
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 taxes online 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 up to May 18, 2022, at midnight, to submit their income tax return, postmarked, regardless of their place of residence.
