The Tax Agency refunds over 6 billion euros to 8.2 million taxpayers

Income Tax Campaign. These figures represent a 42% increase in the amount and a 37% increase in the number of contributors. There are more than six million confirmed drafts, 20% more than at the same time last year. 11.5 million personal income tax returns have been filed so far, of which 5 million have been filed online.

June 19, 2008. As of June 16, the Tax Agency has returned 6.011 billion euros to 8,277,857 taxpayers. Compared to the same period last year, the amount has increased by 42% and the number of taxpayers by 37%.

The confirmed drafts up to June 16 are 6,132,351, which represents an increase of 20% over those confirmed in the same period last year.

The total number of personal income tax returns submitted so far this tax campaign amounts to 11,560,487 (including confirmed drafts, since when they are confirmed, the return is submitted). This represents a 15% increase in the number of tax returns submitted by 16 June. 43% of the returns, 5,055,865, were submitted online (including drafts confirmed online).

The tax campaign ends on June 30 and 19,075,000 returns are expected to be received. The Tax Agency offers taxpayers that meet the conditions laid down by the Income Tax Act the chance to obtain a draft tax return form compiled by the Tax Agency. As a general rule, a draft tax return form is available to taxpayers whose income arises exclusively from work, income from capital subjected to withholding or on-account payment of tax, Treasury Bills, capital gains subjected to withholding or on-account payment of tax, allocation of income from property arising from a maximum of two properties, as well as subsidies for acquisition of a primary home. Eligibility for the tax credit for acquisition of a residence or for donations, or the deduction for pension plan contributions, does not preclude eligibility to receive the draft tax return form. Those who are ineligible for the draft form are sent their tax data by the Tax Agency.

Once the draft tax return form has been received, the taxpayer must review the data contained therein and, if he or she is in agreement, confirm the form. Confirmation will file the return. If the taxpayer believes that information is missing, or if the taxpayer is not in agreement, he or she can modify the draft return and then confirm the modified version.
