Accidentally found what looks like a useful source on this whilst looking for something else today.
Looks like 12455 revenus for a single person max + over 75 y.o.a. would get an exemption. If a couple, add about another 3500 euros to that. Otherwise next step if 75 y.o.a. is a partial protection at the approx 29000 revenus mentioned.
Otherwise for rare cases where AAH (handicap social benefit) is being claimed.
Regardless, unless things go badly pear shaped politically in F, personally regardless of age I’d be keen to carry on paying it to support my community. Unless they outsource déchets to one of the ripoff merchants such as people here have posted from the Dordogne, I’d expect this to be do-able for me.
Last year we realised that we had been charged for extra m2 when we completed the biens immobiliers.
We still had an increase in taxe last year, however i hoped this year note would have been taken of the accurate m2.
No, just got our bill and its gone up again.
I really think we need to get someone out, we seem to pay a lot for a fairly small house. We do have a pool though.
Does snyone know where on the bill it has the sq meterage of the building?
So in previous years we have unknowingly been charged extra for a garage that had been converted to a bedroom.
Then we were given 2 house numbers 38 and 44 (38 for the garage that no longer exists) and thought thats odd.
We filled in the bien immobiliers and realised they have been charging for extra sq meterage.
So at some point they’ve added thr bedroom on but not taken the garage off.
This year instead of taking the ‘extra’ m2 off they’ve just lumped it into one address.
I’m presuming the Mairie was involved/contacted about this “change of use”… (from garage to habitation), with the appropriate paperwork completed and sent hither and thither…
so perhaps you could ask them about why this is happening with your TFonciere bill…
We think he was.
It was all done when we bought the property but they had extensive plans made which they left and I’m pretty sure everything was submitted.
When you Purchased, the Notaire will have asked the Sellers about any work/changes they’d made… so presumably/hopefully things were done in an orderly fashion…
or am I misreading… did the Seller actually do the changes to the property… or did You??
No matter… check with your Mairie… get to the bottom of things.
One can ask the Marie about the status of planning permissions, and issues to do with local plan and so on. However they have nothing to do with the tax foncière, which is the responsibility of local service des impôts. So whist the marie may provide information that they are aware of, the important things is what the tax office understand to be the position.
absolutely… my thoughts are about whether or not the paperwork was done
I am aware that some Mairies can be very helpful if paperwork needs to be done in retrospet (ie before the whatzit hits the fan)… which is why the M would be my first port of call…
