It looks as though social charges (the famous 11%) are paid only on taxable investment income, and not on tax-free interest.  If true, this would make the various tax-free savings accounts (Livret A, etc) just a bit more attractive. Can anyone confirm that this is correct?    Report

Well there is on my one in section 8 AUTRES IMPUTATIONS , back page.. I'm not sure exactly what you're implying, but just to show you what I said. Sorry about the poor copy. .

Form 2042 SK.............and that may be where the problem lies, like me ifor 2004, you got the simplified one used for for salaried people and French people with pensions.  On that one there is no provision for making claims or other types of income and as CRDS is applicable to the totals no TL box.  As I had savings interest I queried it with Mme riboulet and  I was told that "2042 S is a simplified form for person with salaries and pensions only" and was told to download the other 2042 form. Whilst we are on the subject, I found SD's old post about the E 121 and the CRDS .Here is the information that James posted to another forum - I'm better at cutting and pasting than he is...   From the official documents general des impots website:   REVENUS DE SOURCE ÉTRANGÈRE SOUMIS EN FRANCE À L'IMPÔT SUR LE REVENU ET IMPOSABLES À LA CONTRIBUTION POUR LE REMBOURSEMENT DE LA DETTE SOCIALE (CRDS)   Les revenus d'activité et de remplacement de source étrangère sont assujettis à la CRDS dans les conditions et selon les mêmes modalités que les revenus du patrimoine, lorsque ces revenus sont imposables en France, en vertu de la convention fiscale applicable et dans la mesure où la personne physique est à la charge, à quelque titre que ce soit, d'un régime obligatoire français d'assurance maladie.Il s'agit notamment des pensions de source étrangère.     E-mail response from SW tax offices ( edited Mme Riboulet is not in Paris):   British old age pensions and private pension should be entered in box TL , only if you do not hold the document E121. If you hold this document E 121 ( still running in this fiscal year) you are not in the French social security system. In fact , with that document English retired people are in charge of the British security system you have nothing to declare in box TL this , is following a jurisprudence of the europeen court of justice ( 15 fevrier 2000) I hope the above informations will help you, I am staying at your service   Francine Riboulet Contrôleur des Impôts    Why not post a sensible answer, people will appreciate it more    Report

Error in Method of Calculation of Contributions Sociales Our Avis d'Imposition for the above contained an error in the CRDS column, in that it showed our bank interest then our total income (which already included our bank interest) - with the 0.5% charge being levied on the aggregate figure; in effect including our bank interest figure twice. Although it took only about 5 minutes to resolve the matter with a nice lady from the Hotel d'Impots (and only 22 euros was involved - with like amounts for other `immigrant` friends), one wonders just how many others - at least in Hautes Pyrenees - have received similarily incorrect assessments.  So beware and check the figures! gpnoel    Report
