Check the processing status of an Income Tax refund

To obtain information on the processing status of your Renta 2022 return, access the "Renta 2022" services and enter your file through the option "Draft / return processing service (Renta WEB)".

Currently, you can identify yourself in the following 3 ways to check the status of your application:

  • With an electronic certificate or DNI;
  • With Cl@ve PIN (if you are registered in the Cl@ve PIN system);
  • With the reference of the Renta 2022 draft/return and consisting of 6 characters.

Based on the status of the file, the section "Processing Status" of the file will show one of the following messages:"Your return is being processed," "Your return is being checked," "Your return has been processed by the Tax Management bodies, approving the refund you have requested," etc.

Query processing status

When the appropriate checks have been carried out and the tax return is deemed correct, a message will appear stating when the refund will be issued.

System "VERIFICA (Self-correction of declarations)".

If it is a refund and it is still pending, it is advisable to access your file to check if it is within the system called "VERIFICA (Autocorrección de declaraciones)", which will allow you to speed up the refund.

Taxpayers with pending refunds that comply with the requirements of the system will be shown a message informing them about the possibility of speeding up the verification and subsequent refund.

To access "VERIFICA" you will need to use an electronic certificate, DNIe or Cl@ve PIN.If the correction is carried out by a third party, representative or corporate partner, they must hold two powers of attorney granted by the taxpayer:one to receive notifications and another general one to carry out tax formalities or specific ones for the management of the IRPF tax return. You can find information about the registration of proxies in the block on the right-hand side.

Once you go to "VERIFICA", a screen will appear informing you of the existence of incidents in your tax return and a possible reduction in your refund.If the taxpayer goes ahead with the procedure, which they can discontinue if they prefer to opt for the traditional verification system, the process will conclude with the notification of a settlement proposal with the reduced refund.
