More than 12.8 million taxpayers have already received their refund at the end of the Income Tax Campaign, amounting to 9.042 billion euros

2023 Income Tax Campaign

  • To date, 78.9% of the requested refunds and 66.6% of the amounts have been paid.

  • Throughout the campaign, 24,013,000 returns have been submitted, including more than 1,128,000 through the 'Le Llamamos' telephone plan and more than 831,000 in offices, while those submitted through the 'app' have increased by 23.2%.

  • More than 23,000 taxpayers have rectified their tax returns after receiving the preventive notice from the Tax Agency, thus avoiding checks, the generation of interest and possible penalties.

  • The Tax Agency has provided more than 813,000 responses through digital assistance channels to taxpayers who have used these tools designed to facilitate the preparation of the declaration

July 4, 2024.- The Tax Agency has already returned 9,042 million euros to 12,814,000 taxpayers at the end of the 2023 Personal Income Tax (IRPF 2023) declaration campaign, such that, as of yesterday, 78.9% of the requested refunds in number and 66.6% in amount have already been paid. The evolution of refunds paid (+6.4% in number and +8.9% in amount) is the result of the increase recorded in refund requests from taxpayers themselves. At the end of the campaign, 24,013,000 tax returns had been submitted, 4.9% more than last year, and 67% of them (16,229,000) had a returnable result.

Nearly two million declarations with personalized assistance

In terms of filing methods, the 'Le Llamamos' plan for telephone filing is once again the main filing system with personalized assistance, with 1,128,000 returns, 5.4% more than in the previous campaign and 57% of all filings made with personalized assistance to the taxpayer.

In addition, 831,000 tax returns were submitted at the offices, 6.6% more than the previous year, so that, in total, almost two million tax returns have been submitted in the current campaign with direct and personalized help to the taxpayer, who has a double alternative if they require this type of assistance, with and without going to a physical office.

Thus, between the assistance in offices and the 'We Call You' plan, almost two million declarations have been made with personalized assistance to the taxpayer, of which nearly 25% correspond to people over 65 years of age.

Strong growth in presentations with the app

However, for yet another year, taxpayers continue to file their tax returns online, with a total of 22,053,000 doing so in the campaign that is now ending, almost 92% of the total. Of these, more than 21,405,000 have been submitted through the Agency's electronic headquarters, 4.3% more than the previous year, and the remaining 647,000 through the Agency's mobile application, with a new very strong growth in the year-on-year comparison (+23.3%). Of this total of declarations submitted with the 'app', 482,000 correspond to 'one-click' submissions and the rest are taxpayers for whom the 'app' has referred to the AEAT website to make some modification and they have returned to the application to complete the submission.

More than 813,000 responses through digital support channels

Taxpayers requiring individual assistance are therefore increasingly making use of this powerful alternative to face-to-face assistance in offices, as well as the help provided by two digital assistance channels, the 'Rent Virtual Assistant' and the Renta 'Informant', which in the last campaign have offered taxpayers almost 515,000 answers in natural language to taxpayers' questions through the 'Assistant', and another 260,000 through the 'Informant', with all the information structured by content blocks.

Similarly, taxpayers with more specific or complex questions have been able to connect with specialists from the Comprehensive Digital Administration (ADI), who have answered more than 38,000 chats (45.7% more than the previous year), and have also had access to the traditional telephone channel for resolving tax questions, which during the campaign has answered more than 2,315,000 calls from different types of taxpayers.

23,000 corrections following preventive warnings

One of the new features of the campaign that is now coming to an end is the launch of preventive notices by letter (in addition to those on Renta Web and the app) to the taxpayer to avoid errors and omissions that may subsequently lead to a possible regularisation by the Agency.

In line with the strategy of advancing voluntary compliance through preventive notices to avoid errors and omissions in the declaration, these letters were addressed to certain cases of taxpayers who had submitted their declaration modifying the information provided by the Agency, in order to assess whether or not they should submit a supplementary declaration adapted to the information available to the AEAT.

More than 23,000 taxpayers have rectified their tax returns to date after receiving the preventive notice from the Tax Agency, thus avoiding a possible subsequent audit by the Agency, the generation of interest and the imposition of possible penalties. For these taxpayers, the Renta Web system itself offers the supplementary proposal with the data already incorporated.

Wealth Tax

In parallel with the Income Tax Campaign, the corresponding campaign for the Wealth Tax has also been developed, which had to be declared by those taxpayers with a tax to pay (after applying the corresponding deductions and bonuses) and also by those without a tax to pay who last year had assets and rights with a value greater than two million euros. At the end of the campaign, almost 228,000 asset declarations have been recorded and the amount to be paid has reached 1.911 billion euros.
