The Finance Portal registered almost half a million IRS declarations on the first day of the deadline for taxpayers to declare income earned in 2023, according to the official data available.
According to the Finance Portal, 494,066 declarations had been submitted by 01:00 today, just over 24 hours after the start of the deadline for submitting the annual IRS declaration, the majority (408,857) being from taxpayers who last year only had income from dependent work (category A) and/or pensions (category H).
Tax returns from taxpayers with other types of income amounted to around 85 thousand.
It should be noted that in both cases the figures include the 40,000 or so declarations that have already been submitted this year and which relate to replacement declarations or the first submissions of income from previous years – and are therefore not part of the current IRS campaign.
In last year’s campaign, around 6 million IRS returns were settled, of which 32.7% were submitted through IRS Automático and 67.3% manually.
The deadline for submitting the annual IRS tax return is June 30, with the law stipulating that assessments must be completed by July 31 and refunds paid by August 31. The end of August is also the deadline for taxpayers who did not withhold tax or did so to an insufficient amount to pay the tax assessed by the Tax and Customs Authority (AT).
