I agree Graham but thought as letsmile seems so confident thought I would look at it, I also need to find out if it’s been declared anyway as we were told qite a lot of porkies at the time we bought the house!
Anyone know if there is an easy way to do this? Looked at the TF but cannot see anything,
regards
What I did was complete the form H1 from the local tax office, then declare what you have at the property. Very simple to complete and ensures you are fully legit 
Look on your online account onglet biens mobiliers it’ll show you what’s declared ie house space garage loft cellar etc and swimming pool if declared
The simple answer is you don’t - it’s how the system works.
Once you have all your numbers you set up your impots account. You can then arrange to pay next years by direct debit - you pay in advance not arrears using the monthly system.
Im IN the system! What I did NOT realise is that when I ask to pay by direct debit (for the NEXT year) that the actual number they require is the number (i.e. our Tax No) that I have already entered in order to get into the system!!!
I (wrongly?) assumed that the “number” they wanted me to input was an “Invoice” number of the TF !!! I will now go back in and put our Tax No. (although we have 2 so I presume (as always) that it will be my husband’s Tax No that I put in!) How strange!
Not really strange if you think about it. There are two Déclarants typically in a foyer (there may be more of course) and each is entitled to their own privacy hence being given their own tax reference or TIN.
No different to bank accounts really. Our French bank accounts are entitled M ou Mme and there are accounts specific to my wife (Livret A, LDD, LEP for example) and statements for her are addressed separately.
But yes, to answer your specific question, in normal circumstances you would use the number for the 1st déclarant if that is the only online account you have set up.
I am wondering what the commune of Mantes-la-Jolie has to pay for that could possibly justify an increase of nearly 19%
Maybe extra police presence? Always seemed to be in the news.
Their citizens will doubtless know what’s what… these taxe percentages have to be voted-in somewhere along the line…
That’s useful, and at 3.4% looks as if it could have been worse for us!
Ours is very roughly 5% this year - less than last year. Still considerably less than the UK where we lived in Warwick.
definitely… we pay now annually what we paid twice per month in the UK…one for the house and a similar amount for the business in NDR 
Yours has gone down?!
Sorry Jane 
ours has increased by about 5% this year
Payment date is coming around… check your Bill and check your finances…
I pay mine online as soon as it comes in so as not to forget it.
By doing so, you get a further extension on the payment date as a reward and I diarize the payment date as a reminder to move funds around if necessary to ensure that the payment doesn’t fail at the bank for lack of funds.
With proper budgeting, people should know in advance what their commitments could be at any given time over the year on a historical basis and should make plans to meet their obligations - the basic Micawber principle rules OK 
I know you’re sorted… it’s all them uvvers I’m thinking about…
I confess I just put it on a virement, you get the same extension and I don’t have to worry about forgetting.
alright… you get a pat on the back, too…
