Many people have received a letter from the Tax Authorities in recent weeks. Earlier this month, the tax authorities started with the so -called legal recovery box 3. That legal recovery is necessary because in the past the tax authorities have levied too much tax to people with assets, such as shares and real estate.
Legal recovery
These people pay tax on the income they earn with their assets. Consider, for example, the efficiency of people with shares. In the past, however, the tax authorities worked with fictional returns, which were sometimes higher than the actual returns that people achieved. They therefore sometimes paid too much tax, and the judge ruled that this is not fair and that the tax authorities violate European human rights.
Now taxpayers can therefore prove that they achieved less return than on which the tax authorities charged them. They can prove that via an online form. They are called upon to fill in the form via a letter. The same letter contains the fictional returns with which the tax authorities calculated.

For 33,000 people who have now received such a letter, however, the information appears to be incorrect. These are people who received post from the tax authorities on this subject on 16, 17 or 24 July. The letters with wrong information have as characteristic CAP/UCF/25/222 or CAP/UCF/25/223. Letters with a different feature simply contain the correct information.
Extra time
Anyone who received an incorrect letter will receive mail from the tax authorities around 1 August, with or the correct information. These people also have longer to give up their actually achieved returns: the adjusted term is stated in the new letter. Forms already completed can still be adjusted.
