Income statement calendar 2021/2022: key dates for the taxpayer

The campaign starts today, April 6, for statements submitted online

The 2021 Income Tax Declaration Campaign has started. The taxpayer's calendar to make the declaration corresponding to the income obtained in the 2021 financial year includes several key dates marked in red for the 2021 Personal Income Tax and Assets Campaign. In addition, this year there are some new features, such as the increase in the tax for incomes from 300,000 euros and for assets of more than 10 million.

The Income Tax return, marked again by the coronavirus pandemic, can be submitted in several ways: online through the Tax Agency website, by telephone or in person.

These are the key dates:

• Wednesday April 6
  • Start of the campaign to submit the declaration online.
• Thursday May 5
  • Telephone mode is available
• Wednesday June 1
  • start of in-person assistance at the tax agency offices
• Monday June 27
  • End of presentation for declarations with results to be deposited with direct debit
• Thursday June 30
  • The deadline to submit the income tax return ends

For the presentation of returns online, a means that nine out of ten taxpayers already use, the campaign starts today.

If the taxpayer wants to prepare the declaration in an ordinary way, the period will be extended between June 1 and 30.

If you choose to use the telephone, the first business day is May 5 and until June 30. In this modality, it is the Tax Agency that will contact the taxpayer.

Furthermore, throughout the month of June, coinciding with the ordinary period of the campaign, taxpayers will be able to present their declaration in person at the Tax Agency offices. With results to be deposited and with direct debit, the deadline ends on June 27.
