How to find out taxes if you haven’t received a receipt

A2226 › Blog › Note to the driver

1. The easiest way is to contact the nearest tax office. The consultant will tell you how to write a free-form application with a request to check all calculations for taxes and fees. After receiving the application, the tax officer will present a receipt indicating the amount of debt, the amount of current tax and the details by which payment can be made.
2. You can get information without leaving your home. To do this, just go to the State Services website. All information is provided personally upon the taxpayer’s request and is compiled as quickly as possible. However, payment cannot be made through such a resource. To find out data on the amount of tax and the presence of debts for previous periods, just select “Federal Tax Service” in the “Authorities” section. In the window that opens, you need to go to the services tab, and then to free information for taxpayers. The result of the application will be available in your personal account directly on the website.
3. The last way to find out whether there is a debt for previous tax periods and to clarify the amount of the current payment is to go to your personal account on the official website of the Federal Tax Service. For the first time, you can access your account only by requesting a password from the tax office. However, having received such a password and logged in to the site, the taxpayer will have the opportunity to clarify the tax amount at any convenient time and pay it directly on the site. If it is more convenient for a person to pay taxes with a paper receipt, it can be generated on the website and printed.

The legislative framework

In accordance with the legislative framework, everyone whose data is included in the documents for residential space is obliged to pay property tax. The calculation of this amount is made by special tax authorities, in accordance with the inventory list, which indicates the cost of the apartment.

The Law “On Taxes on Property of Individuals” stipulates that notifications of payments are issued by the relevant authorities no later than August 1 of each year.

But it is also worth considering that the regulatory framework regulates the fact that repayment should be made only if the owner receives the payments. If such documents are not sent on time, then state authorities do not have the right to charge penalties and fines for non-payment.

Tax rate

The apartment tax paid by the owners is transferred to the city budget account on whose territory the property is located. The final tax rate is calculated based on the total cost of the apartment.

At the moment, according to the law, it is 0.1%, however, depending on each specific conditions, by decision of the government, the rate may be reduced (preferential conditions).

Privileges

The preferential tax system is social in nature and is aimed at helping the poor.

Currently, the law on preferential taxation applies to:

1. Disabled people of group 1.
2. Disabled people of 2nd group.
3. Pensioners.
4. Disabled since childhood.
5. WWII veterans.
6. People with the “Hero of the SS” and “Hero of the Russian Federation” awards.
7. Persons affected by the Chernobyl disaster.

Also, “servants of art” who use a residential premises as a workshop are exempt from tax in full.

It is worth considering that if more than one apartment is registered for one citizen who has benefits, the benefit applies exclusively in a single case.

How to pay transport tax

Having acquired their own vehicle, everyone must understand that along with it a new obligation will appear - payment of transport tax, which is levied so that the state has the opportunity to maintain, repair, and build new roads and other infrastructure. Usually all this comes by mail, but sometimes failures occur in the system that has been established over the years. Postal workers lose a package containing a payment, it is eaten by a dog, or it is accidentally burned in the fireplace. Then the question arises of how to pay the transport tax if there is no receipt, how to find out the full amount of the debt and how to get out of an unpleasant situation quickly and with “little loss”, without postponing the matter.

How to pay transport tax, is it possible to pay in installments: places and methods in 2020

I don’t advise you to go and ask to pay taxes that they missed. I am familiar with the tax system firsthand. I don’t remember the article of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, but the point is that for some types of taxes the inspectorate is responsible for determining the amount of tax for you and notifying you about it. Such a tax notice must be delivered to you personally against receipt (various methods, including via registered mail). If the courier service or post office notified you that a tax notice has arrived, then it is better to receive it, otherwise it will not be in your favor. So, the tax inspectorate did not fulfill its duty to notify you as required by law (somewhere in Articles 58-64 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation), and they do not have the right to impose a fine or penalty. But if they discover their mistakes, then at best, at the moment, they can only present taxes for three years. That is, now they can present for 2007, 2008, 2009. For the current 2010, it is still too early. Under no circumstances should you pay for 2006 and older years. The bottom line is that there is no statute of limitations for taxes, but there is a restriction on the tax inspectorate conducting on-site and desk audits. For them, there is a limitation on the statute of limitations - no more than three completed calendar years.
