More than 11.7 million Personal Income Tax payers have already received their refund, for a total amount of 7.385 billion euros

2017 Income Tax campaign

  • 84% of the returns and almost 74% of the amounts requested have been paid so far

August 2, 2018 .- The Tax Agency has returned, as of July 31, 7,385 million euros to 11,779,000 taxpayers, so that 84 have already been paid. 4% of the refunds and 73.8% of the amounts requested in the Personal Income Tax (IRPF) campaign corresponding to 2017.

 After incorporating practically all of the declarations not counted at the end of the campaign, the Agency has registered 19,909,000 declarations, 250,000 more than on the same dates last year. Refund requests total 13,947,000, 70% of the total.

 Data from the Ministry of Finance directed by María Jesús Montero reflect that refund requests have remained at very similar figures to last year (-0.6%), and refunds paid are evolving along those lines. The amounts requested to be returned and those actually returned also follow a very similar trend (+0.1% year-on-year).

The last campaign saw the introduction of the new mobile application and the 'Le Llamamos' plan for preparing declarations over the telephone. The new 'APP' has been used by almost 200,000 taxpayers to file their Income Tax. Of that total, almost 158,000 have been declarations presented 'in a single click' and the rest had to go through the Agency's website to make some modification.

 In turn, 141,000 taxpayers less accustomed to new technologies and with a telephone assistance profile have chosen to set a date and time for the AEAT to call them and have submitted their declaration using the 'We Call You' plan.

 Nearly a third of the taxpayers who last year went to the Agency's offices for help in preparing their returns and who, however, did not make any modification with respect to the initial calculations proposed by the AEAT, this year have opted for non-face-to-face methods, thus avoiding travel and having the opportunity to receive the refund sooner, if applicable.

 Wealth Tax

 In parallel, the Wealth Tax campaign has been developed, which taxpayers with a positive tax rate had to declare (after applying deductions and bonuses), and also those without a tax rate who last year had assets and rights of more than 2 million euros. After incorporating the presentations pending accounting, 203,300 declarations have been registered, of which more than 176,000 with an amount to be deposited for a total of 1,111 million euros.
