Hello, I have a quick question for anyone who doesn't mind helping me out. Sorry for not searching through for any advice already posted - I am running back and forth between my friendly local treasury. Please don't hate me for not searching! I filled in a tax return in June, but accidentally put the wrong cumul imposable in the box - I wrote 20 000 (with an after-%-knocked-off of around 18 500) instead of 14 000. Got an avis back saying I owed 1200, took it into the tax office and pointed out the mistake, with the correct number, and he sent it off for re-assessment. With the % knocked off, I had a taxable income of 12644 euros. I got a new avis back recently, saying that I had been awarded a relief of 1000, leaving just 200 to pay. Now, my girlfriend, who also had a taxable income of around 12300, was awarded nearly 600 euros back. For that tax year, 2010, we were both employed at the same place (a restaurant), paid the same contributions (we are fully in the system), and filed our tax returns at exactly the same time. Can anyone clear up just why I've been told to pay 200 euro, whilst she has been given 600 euro back? It isn't making any sense to me. As a further confusion, yesterday I got yet another avis saying that I owed 450 habitax, and 123 for a TV licence. I just signed a bit of paper at the treasury saying that I don't have a TV (I honestly don't), so that is scratched off, but the avis still has the 18 500 taxable income written on it, instead of the 12 644... surely the whole document is null and void? I know the habitax isn't worked out as a part of your income, more from an intricate system of guesswork and prayer, but I was under the impression that I was in a tax bracket for whom habitax wasn't applicable... Please, someone, help! Many many thanks, all.
