[French Tax Form 2006]

Thank you for your help.

I emailed my local impots to request all the forms and I was informed that I needed to email again at the beginning of May when the forms will be sent out. So I think I was panicking a bit prematurely.

[Floor - tiles or laminate?]

we have tiles throughout downstairs and laminate everywhere upstairs other than bathrooms and we wouldn't change a thing.

[Built in wardrobes]

Is there a company that specialises in installing built in wardrobes / cupboards?

I know that you can buy the kits and have sliding door wardrobes/ cupboards and fit them yourself, but  our space is the wrong size for these.

If any one could tell me what trade I should be looking under in the yellow pages, that would help also.

[Selling house and tax]

I have had conflicting advice , can any one help clear it up for me.

If you are a permanent resident in France with no other property at all , if you have a house built as a family home and then sell it before 5 years, are you liable for capital gains tax or the french equivalent?

 

[Who is to blame?]

Looking closer to home, certainly the Bretons had a tough time trying to retain their mother language in the last century despite being " French" and at one time could not even have a celtic/ breton car sticker without attracting  the attention of the gendarmes. So any even limited concessions they make to foriegners is something.

[Products for fosse septique]

What waste water goes to a soakaway rather than the fosse?

Also, should ladies make other arrangements for getting rid of certain monthly items? I've tried to phrase that as delicately as I can.

I have a friend who uses false teeth cleaning tablets to clean her sink, leaves a couple in a sink of water overnight and then just sponge of the residue, I haven't tried it myself.

[Recommedations for future articles in LF magazine?]

Is it possible for Forum Users to suggest things that they would like to see in LF Magazine?

If so, could the powers that be please do a translated French Tax Form , they did something similar with the form that you need to fill in if you have an accident , a couple of years back. 

I'm sure a translated French Tax form would be a God send to many. 

[French Tax Form 2006]

Are people who only recently arrived in France required to complete a French tax form in 2006? Or is anyone who is permanently resident required to fill in the form? 

[Can we charge for pylon on our land?]

Hi

We own a property in France that has a pylon on it which supplies electricty to our property and to a number of houses behind us. I have no problem with the pylon being on our land just wondered if we were entitled to peppercorn rent from EDF as I know BT pay for this kind of thing in the UK and anything that could help offset our electricity bills would be most welcome. Kind thoughts please.
