There are still days left to file your tax return. How long before the taxpayer's overpayment is refunded to the state
There are two weeks left until the deadline for filing the 2022 Income Tax Return for entrepreneurs. During this period, in the context of facilitating the filing of the return, all Tax Service Directorates in the Republic of Moldova will operate under a special regime. At the same time, the State Tax Service informs that individuals-citizens can submit this declaration until May 2, but urges taxpayers to submit this document in time to avoid overcrowding.
"- Can I file the declaration for my husband?" asked Natalia Loșmanschi, one of the visitors.
"No, you can't file, you have to present yourself in person, or by proxy. Online you can file the declaration, if you have an electronic signature", explained Nicolae Cebotari, an employee of the Tax Service Directorate, Botanica sector of the capital.
Natalia Loșmanschi came to the Botanica Tax Service Directorate to file her husband's income tax return. The young woman says she is sorry she didn't visit the service's website to find out more and made a wasted trip all the way from the other end of the city.
"Even if I come online, we just have to have the electronic signature, but we don't and already the husband is coming back on April 30 and we will have to file on May 2. We'll stand in line, we'll wait," says the woman.
At the Botanica Tax Service Directorate there was no crowd. Those we spoke to said they were in a hurry to file their income tax returns early to avoid the huge queues.
"Because I have little time before the deadline and I wouldn't want to charge any penalty, to have everything in order, to sleep peacefully";
"I try my best every year, on all the income that I have, to file returns with the tax inspectorate. First of all, I am a member of society, I want to contribute to the prosperity of the state I am in."
For individuals the deadline for submitting income tax returns is 2 May. Legal entities are required to do so by 27 March.
"In order to avoid and save time and provide an efficient service, the Tax Service urges taxpayers to plan their respective activities in advance. The citizen can easily use the personal office, as long as he has an electronic signature, this would be the most optimal way to submit the return in the current year and would satisfy the process of submitting the return for both the taxpayer and the tax service," says the acting head of the Botanica Tax Service Department, Mariana Voloh.
At the same time, taxpayers who have paid more money to the state will be able to benefit from their refund as soon as the period for submitting the income tax return ends.
"If they do not register any additional obligations to the budget in other budget chapters, they will have to apply to the tax service and within a very short period of time the amount of the overpayment will be redirected either to the taxpayer's bank account or to other accounts, based on the request redirected according to the taxpayer's wishes. According to the examination procedure within a maximum period of 15 days the amount is to be refunded", says Mariana Voloh.
For further information, people are urged to call the State Tax Service's One Call Centre on the toll-free number 0-8000-1525 or contact the tax service directorates in the country.
