Avis de Degrevement

Recommended Posts

We received an Avis de Degrevement and are due a refund of TF in the princely sum of 12 euros. What is confusing me is the reason given on the form for the refund is “for loss of harvest and damage to grasslands as a consequence of drought in 2015”!! We have a large plot of land, 6 acres in total with 1 acre being building land. Surely they are not assuming that we are using the other 5 acres for agricultural purposes? When we purchased the plot it was sold as farming land with no building permits which we subsequently obtained for the 1 acre portion. Would our taxe fonciere be assessed higher or lower if the land was still considered farming/agricultural land and they assume we are making money from it (it is just used as our garden). If the former, should we contact the relevant authority and tell them so. Or maybe the meaning of “harvest” has just got lost in translation.

Thank you

I would have thought it would be quite important to clarify that you are not faming, if only to be sure that MSA don't come after you for cotisations. Since it's only 12€, this might be a good time to make it clear to the authorities that you are not farming, otherwise it could lead to complications later. If it was previously on the computer as farming land, and you've never told anybody otherwise, then it will still be on the computer as farming land - computers have a way of assuming that data is correct unless or until somebody changes it.
