If the wait is longer than it should be, you should know that you can claim late payment interest
On June 30, the deadline for submitting the Income Statement for the 2021 financial year ended. If the contribution was returned to you, the Tax Agency usually takes only one day to make the payment to those people to whom it is owed, but sometimes the Treasury can be delayed and, in that case, you should bear in mind that you can resort to default interest to benefit you.
The first thing you should know to try to benefit from these interests is that your return must be in the confirmation phase by the Tax Agency, for which you must receive an explicit message. Once at that point, if you have not received the money within 29 days, you must contact the Treasury to request payment of the proportional part of that period of time, that is, late payment interest.
How to know if you can request default interest
To find out the status of the application, one of the fastest and most comfortable ways is through the Income Tax website. There you will have to access with your electronic ID, Digital Certificate, Cl@ve Pin or reference number and know the processing point. You can check if it is still in process or if there has been an incident. Once the Treasury receives the declaration, it becomes ‘in process’ and, once it has been inspected, it becomes ‘verified’.
As a general rule, this process does not usually take more than a couple of weeks in which the Treasury generally analyzes the situation of each taxpayer and begins to return the Declaration. The personal income tax numbers are also checked and they make sure that the data issued corresponds to reality, so it is very important that the data sent in the declaration is correct.
Sanctions and surcharges for presenting the Rent after the deadline
If the term to present the Income Tax Return has passed, do not think that you are exempt from carrying out this procedure. It is important to do it as soon as possible because the longer you delay the surcharge will be higher. In addition, if you let the months go by, you expose yourself to a requirement and a significant fine. If it comes out to return you will have to pay a penalty, while if it comes out to pay you will have to face the corresponding surcharges.
In the declarations to be paid, a surcharge will be paid that will be 1% of the amount, plus an additional 1% for each full month of delay since the end of the campaign. Therefore, if you wait until August, the surcharge will be 2%. At the time that a year passes, a 15% surcharge is applied, to which is added some late payment interest.
On the other hand, when the declaration to be returned comes out and you deliver it outside after the established date, it carries a penalty of 100 euros. This amount is reduced to 75 if there is no appeal and it is paid in a voluntary period.
