Ron Avery Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I thought Bob T had something like this, but his may be military. However, what is non taxable in the UK is almost certainly not the same in France. You need to ask your tax office about this as its not a French "pension" and may well be tax deductible here.However, you also run the risk of a tax office clerk making a decision on the hoof as these pensions are not exactly commonplace in France.

Bob T Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Yes, mine is a military pension, known as a war pension. I ended up getting a French person to look into mine and according to the notes with the blue form, it should not be declared at all. I was surprised about this and asked the bank manager who confirmed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are not required to declare the injury pension in France .(here it is known as a"pension accident du travail" and is exempted by Code General des Impots,art.81-8°). If you have documentation showing disability of 40% or more ,you can get an extra demi-part on your quotient which will reduce any tax due in France. You will need to have the paperwork officially translated and ensure that the key words--"accident (or maladie) du travail, and more than 40% " are clearly stated.

sueyh Posted May 22, 2009 Author Share Posted May 22, 2009 So do I not therefore declare the Injury pension at all, or do I need permission to not declare it? Sorry if I am being dense.Suey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
