TAX DEADLINE 2022. The declaration campaign is fast approaching, whether for an online or paper declaration. Don’t miss the start date and the deadlines for completing your declaration. Here are all the key dates.
[Mis à jour le 30 mars 2022 à 08h47] When spring is on its way, the tax return is never far away. Indeed, the beginning of April rhymes with tax declaration and the start date is known! The starting signal will be given on Thursday April 7, 2022. All taxpayers without exception must complete it, despite the implementation of the withholding tax in 2019. The tax return allows the tax authorities to calculate the exact amount of income tax for which you are liable for the tax year in question. Subsequently, this same tax authorities will determine whether you are liable for a tax balance income based on what you have already paid last year. Or vice versa, if you will benefit from a repayment tax during the summer. The declarative campaign will end 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.
