The fastest launch of the platform to submit tax returns has “won” in AADE already a month. Within 8 days 298,693 tax returns have been submitted. To reach the corresponding numbers we had to wait until May 14, until April 24, 2023 and until April 27, 2022.

This “frenzy” of 37,337 statements a day, if it continues, will become possible to submit more than 2.5 million tax returns Before April leaves. It will also contribute to the fact that immediately after the Easter holidays, specifically on April 24, AADE will press the button to automatically submit about 1.5 million pre -filled tax returns.

The 298.693 who have already filed a tax return, will enjoy a 4% deduction on their tax on whether they are repaid a lump sum by July 31.

The processing of the data available so far shows that half of the tax returns, 50.39%, are zero.

1/4 of the statements, 25.52%, is debit and the average tax that the first “bold” are required to pay is € 1004.

Also 1/4 has a credit clearance with the waist tax refund amount to 360.7 €.

As has been the case in the last 2 years, those who have received them will quickly get their money and the same will happen with offsetting.

Tax refunds to taxpayers without tax or insurance debts or information freezing will be sent to the Bank of Greece for immediate refund on a weekly basis.

Regarding tax refunds to taxpayers without tax information or debts, offsetting will be centrally on a weekly basis starting from April 5-6. Those who cannot be centralized will not be carried out in the shortest possible time by the competent services, without the taxpayer having to submit any tax return request.

According to the practice of AADE, income tax debts will be offset as priority with refund rights, which exist or will be born until July 31, so that in the event of the repayment of the income tax through offsetting, the tax deduction is not lost for the taxpayer.

The new element in terms of the process of filing tax returns is that this year AADE is taking care of the “forgotten” and with electronic emerging messages on computers, their mobile phones or tablets, as they surf the internet, they will notify them that they have to complete them.
