TAX DEADLINE 2022. The start of the declaration campaign is very close. When should I complete my declaration? What is the deadline? We tell you everything.
[Mis à jour le 1er avril 2022 à 07h41] D-7 before the start of this 2022 declarative campaign! When spring is on its way, the tax return is never far away. This year, you can complete this tax return from Thursday, April 7. The deadline is set for June 8 for an online declaration, May 19 for the paper format. Remember that despite the implementation of the withholding tax in 2019, no taxpayer is exempt from completing their tax return. This operation remains mandatory. If you have not changed your situation or your salary, the declaration will be quick. You will only have to confirm the information already provided by the tax authorities. On the contrary, if you have changed jobs and remuneration, you will have to modify all of this information on your declaration. The tax return also allows you to obtain a refund if this is the case, and to update your withholding tax rate.
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:
- 1time area: the May 24, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. for departments n° 01 to 19 and residents not resident in France
- 2th area: the May 31, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. for departments 20 to 54 including the two departments of Corsica
- 3th area: the June 8, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. for departments n° 55 to 974/976
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.
