Hi!Legally it is the "cooperla" answer - the rate at the date you received the money.But in practice it has been different;- Some tax offices accepted the rate per 31.12.- Sole tax offices issued their own average rate of exchange.Now for the coming declaring, since the variations are much greater than in the past, if you absolutely not want to use, the day rate, then you can also call the Tax Office and ask, what rate they suggest. Some of course will say the day rate.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!As you will find the matter is rather complex - it will also depend on how the contracts are worded;In all case ( but only in French, unless you happen to catch the " perle rare " who speaks English ) you will be able to get free information, if you go to your local Tax Office ( on consumers' day - usually in the morning ).This is quite a normal procedure in France, and there are no qualms to have about this.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!Qui va samo , va piono.As written it could be agreed on in Junuary:Aucune confédération syndicale ne s'est prononcée dans l'immédiat surune signature ou non de cet accord. Chacune renvoyant à la décision deses instances au mois de janvier.At present the Trade Unions do not quite seem to like the " agreement " text.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!Here the details from!http://www.pratique.fr/argent/banque/daf1201.htmchèque postdaté : il est interdit de faire un chèque en y portant unefausse date. De plus, si le chèque est présenté avant la date indiquée,il sera quand même payé par la banque (ou si c'est impossible,considéré comme un chèque sans provision) ;So:- not allowed ( with any wrong date )- such a cheque can be presented immediately- if no money on the account, it will be considered as not covered ( with all the consequences)Yours,giantpanda

Hi!You do not necessarily need to have a French account. It is not an obligation.But how do you suggest paying taxes and utility bills?You will hardly find these are prepared to collect from foreign accounts. And money transfers can generate costs at the receiver end, unless you can provide for this, by making a special transfer ( if your bank does it ).Yours,giantpanda

Hi!Are you certain that the ruling you have posted applies generally, or just locally to your specific Supermarket?If it was the case ( i.e; it applied everywhere) , I am certain that your suggestion would be more generally known and publicised by associations.But I could be wrong.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!As written, the Euro 8000 does not include labour costs.Initially the law was made to boost business for artisan and smaller firms. Now the ecological aspect is taking the overhand.These days, it would have been worth considering a certain opening of the "crédits d'impôts" , if the State had been prepared to pay ( which mean all taxpayers, with extra taxes ) these costs.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!The items which qualify for " crédits d'impôts " have just changed ( last week ) for the coming years. Basically what you have built in ( only valid for the résidence principale, done by a firm and only valid for the material value - and that under conditions. From 2009 it is also valid for rental premises ( max. 3 ) but you would require to have your main residence in France ( whereby that would have to be checked. Again also under certain rental levels for the flats.Certain norms have to be respected.So best wait a little, or ask as precise question, to get full details.As regards the sum you can invest, it was limited to- Euro 8000 per person for the whole period 1.1.2005 till 31.12.2009.- Now it has been changed to the same sum from 1.1.2005 till 31.12.2013, but only taking in the last 5 years.As alternative you can get for eco transformations of your main residence a tax free credit ( not as the same time as the crédit d'impôts) in 2009 up to Euro 30,000 for 7 or 8 years - full details are not yet out.).Yours,giantpanda

Hi!In the past: permis prélable.Now - see table:http://www.fnphp.com/sites/fnphp/veille_juridique/droit_rural/construction_de_chassis_et_serres___permis_de_construire_ou_declaration_prealable__.aspxIf you require aform you can download here ( look a the number of copies required to file )http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/pme/R17501.xhtmlYours,giantpanda

Hi!You do not need to close itBut it is essential that you contact directly ( talk ) the bank, because they have to change your file.Yours,giantpandaPS. If you have for example tax free saving accounts you will not be able to keep them - but talk about the question till when you legally can hold them - it may be up to the end of the year ).

Hi!See here:http://www.orange.fr/bin/frame.cgi?u=http%3A//mobile.orange.fr/content/ge/high/v2_offre_boutique/doc_tarif/documentation_tarif.htmlBut if you want to check for you, which is the cheapest, than make your standard trolley.And check with the different outlets, what it the total cost.Of course, things get complicated, if you do not stick to branded articles, because quality will not be necessarily comparable.In general with Aldi or Lidl, you will fare pretty well.But for example if you compare the regular Lidl price, and the price of Leclerc Eco ( which is not necessarily the same quality, and it not always available) you will find the Eco product will be a few centimes cheaper.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!A completed theoretical question. In practice, this is hardly possible.Where he to impose this in France, where would it put French banks in the international competition.His affirmation is only to increase the control on tax havens.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!It will depend on:1. What sort of telephone you use ( fix or portable ) you use.2. It will depend on what sort of telephone you call ( fix or portable )3. It will depend from call box, or from home.4. From home, it will depend, on what sort of contract you have.See the tariff catalogue:http://www.orange.fr/bin/frame.cgi?u=http%3A//mobile.orange.fr/content/ge/high/v2_offre_boutique/doc_tarif/documentation_tarif.htmlYours,giantpanda

Hi!If the medecine exist in larger packings, one should ask for it - goof top ) , since it is possibly not the interest of the chemist to give you the larger packing.I am afraid that this is rather an exception.Will test next time.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!Here is what the French write:http://www.europe1.fr/Info/Actualite-France/Societe/Tunnel-sous-la-Manche-retour-a-la-normale-en-fevrier/(gid)/186712Latest 15th February ( if the work in process goes to plan ).Yours,giantpanda

Hi!Stop looking for a book in English for income taxation purposes ( exceptions would be just one on the principles ), because it is by definition out of date, taking the time for publication.In French, if you want to be up to date, you have nearly each financial paper or monthly, that publishes a: How to declare you current income? These are available usually in January at newsagents, or even in supermarket.I would personally recommend: Le Particulier Impôts 2008 ( that is the coming one ) Guide de la Déclaration de Revenus ( about 280 pages - price ( last one ) Euro 7.Yours,giantpanda

Hi!It can be either /or - depending on the case.What you are looking for is a crédit d'impôts, which gives you a refund:http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/particuliers/F12.xhtml?&n=Emploi,%20travail&l=N5&n=Particulier%20employeur&l=N453Yours,giantpanda

Hi!It depends:-on the office-on their work load.1st you get a paper " attestation" which is basic just as " good " as the Carte Vitale, which then could take a further month ( or more because of Christmas ).Yopurs,giantpanda

Hi!To be understood as equivalent of the CMU, with covers basically 70% ( except operation costs at 100% ) if you take abstraction of the franchises.Yours,giantpandaNB. Nobody knows really how this is controlled, and appreciated.Has anybody any experience here?

Hi!If you have both British passports, there are nno problems, except the question of the Health Insurance.Since you will not be able to bring an E106 ( having worked the last years in the EC), you will be required to have a equivalent ( to the French CMU ) Health Insurance.In all cases you should have a formal lease, to avoid any problems.See here.[url=http://larecherche.service-public.fr/df/oxide?criteriaContent=location+meubl%E9e&Rechercher.x=0&Rechercher.y=0&Rechercher=tous&page=resultssprubs&action=launchsearch&DynRubrique=&DynCorpus=&DynDomain=SP]Location meublée[/url]Since your friend will be getting a rent, they will have to declare the income in their next year's income tax declaration.Since you would be French fiscal residents, you would if you came this year, have to make an income tax return , for the period ;Date of arrival till End of 2009 ( to be sent in 30.5.2009). Notwithstanding for this you do not have to preregister - The tax number is only given with a 1st declaration ( which is voluntary, compulsory).Yours,giantpanda

Hi!The process of changing the present French regulations is on the move.At present, the only provision you can take, it that you can refuse " l'acharnement thérapeutique " ( to be added to the " dossier médical ")http://www.hopital.fr/Hopital/L-hopital-et-vous/La-fin-de-vie/Les-droits-du-malade-en-fin-de-vie-et-de-sa-famille/Le-refus-de-l-acharnement-therapeutiquea later version if it was accepted ( see the next pages ) :http://www.e-sante.fr/autres-informations-sante-fin-vie-votee-assemblee-acharnement-therapeutique-oui-dignite-NN_8157-99-1.htmYours,giantpanda

Hi!You need to go into details with the firm that fits them -There have been this year many claims from the Tax Office (wanting the money back ) concerning Air/Air ones, for "crédit d'impôt" paid in previous years.Notwithstanding, they have just received instructions,to stand down. This will hardly be valid for the future.Here what the State ruling writes.http://vosdroits.service-public.fr/particuliers/F1221.xhtmlAs regards the rates, difficult to say anything, since the matter is coming up in December before the Parliament, and there could be at least a reduction against this year.See more information.http://www.3x-consulting.fr/pompe_a_chaleur_air_air_chauffage_et_climatisation_reversible_5.htmlYours,giantpanda
