More and more often, citizens began to complain that they do not receive tax on an apartment. What to do in this situation? What features to pay attention to? Should we be afraid of such a phenomenon? Understanding all this is not as difficult as it seems. In Russia, as in any country, the period of receipt of taxes is monitored by the population. Indeed, in the absence of an appropriate receipt, it will not be possible to deposit funds into the state treasury on time. How to make sure that there are no problems with receipts? How dangerous is the situation in which apartment tax payments do not arrive?

Degree of danger

First of all, you will have to understand whether it is really worth panicking if a citizen does not receive tax receipts. This situation is not as rare as it seems. It requires special attention.

In fact, such incidents in Russia are not uncommon. You should not be afraid, but also sit back - too. If you do not pay taxes (even if there is no receipt, there is a certain deadline for paying taxes), the citizen will have a debt. Accordingly, the debt will accumulate and grow daily. Problems with the tax authorities are guaranteed.

All this is not very encouraging. Therefore, you will have to understand how to behave if the apartment tax does not come. What to do in this case? When is there reason to panic? And is it possible to somehow influence the situation?

Not yet time

In fact, you should not immediately panic if your tax payments do not come. The fact is that such payments have a certain payment period. It is for him that payment documents will be ready.

Today, apartment taxes must be paid before December 1, 2016. Receipts must be sent out no later than one month before the last day of payment. Accordingly, until approximately the beginning of November, you should not panic. It is recommended to simply wait for the receipts to be sent. When the time comes, the tax authorities themselves will deliver the payment document.

No data

Apartment taxes still not coming? What to do? If November has come, and there are still no payments, you can contact the tax authorities. For example, by calling. It is likely that the lack of receipts is a consequence of the lack of information about a particular property. Such situations are not uncommon.

It is recommended to simply follow the advice of the tax authorities. Sometimes they ask to come personally for a receipt if it is supposed to enter data about the house left without payments in the near future. But most often it is advised to just wait and not panic. Especially ifthere is a new building. Taxes will begin to come to the population when the relevant data on real estate is transferred to the tax authorities, helping to carry out calculations.

Forgetfulness

Does the apartment tax come? What to do in this case? Sometimes receipts are simply forgotten to be sent out. The most ordinary people work in the tax authorities. They may forget to send payments to certain payers. Or the system fails, which makes it impossible to bring the idea to life.

If a citizen is concerned about the lack of payments, you can personally (with a passport and documents for an apartment) contact the district tax service. There, the receipt will be printed without fail and immediately handed over to the recipient. The process does not take much time. This is the most effective way.

The promised three years are waiting

It is worth paying attention to the fact that taxes have a statute of limitations. It is 3 years old. Therefore, if payment orders did not come to one or another citizen, it must be remembered that at one fine moment the owner can receive tax payments for 3 years.

A noteworthy point is that pen alties should not be charged if receipts were not actually sent. Then you only have to pay taxes. However, some say that if there are no receipts, then you don’t need to pay. It is possible that the tax authorities simply forgot to send out the bills. No receipt, no problem.

Electronic view

Didn't the apartment tax come? What to docitizen, so as not to run into debt? You can try to check the availability of payment in electronic form.

The fact is that since 2016, all citizens who have a personal account on the State Services portal receive receipts and payment orders only in electronic form. On the corresponding site, in the user profile, you can see the tax payment.

Accordingly, do not be surprised if the apartment tax does not come. What to do? Remember if the owner of the property has a profile on "Gosuslugah". If there is one, you should not wait for a receipt by mail - it will not come. It is necessary to log in to the "Gosuslugi" and look into the notifications. There will be a receipt for payment. Only she will come not earlier than the deadline - about a month before the end of the tax payment.

After sale

With real estate, various transactions are constantly carried out. Got tax on the sold apartment? What to do? First of all, it is necessary to understand that payers pay in a given year for property that was sold in the past period. That is, in 2016, payments come for 2015.

Accordingly, if the tax on the sold apartment came in the year when the transaction was carried out, you will have to pay it. And then it is recommended to report to the tax authorities on the sale of real estate. This technique will save you from unnecessary problems. It is recommended to take a contract of sale of real estate with you.

Pensioners and taxes

In Russia, pensioners are considered perpetual beneficiaries. They are exempt from property taxes. But only for one property. Does a pensioner receive tax on an apartment? What to do?

If this is the only apartment owned by a citizen, it is best to declare benefits to the tax authorities. Until the pensioner himself submits the application of the established form for exemption from property taxes, the receipts will come again and again.

Sometimes older people take a long time to claim their rights. Then you can issue a refund of funds paid as taxes. This is done in the tax authorities.

By the way, if a pensioner declared his rights, then all payments can be ignored. They don't have to be paid. It is recommended that you contact the tax authorities and report persistently troubling tax receipts.

To someone else's apartment

In some cases, citizens complain that they received a tax on someone else's apartment. What to do? You will not be able to receive an envelope with a payment in the mail. Therefore, the notice will simply have to be taken to the regional tax service. The sent document is handed over there, in return you can ask for a payment for your apartment.

You will need to take with you:

• mail notice;
• identity card;
• documents for the apartment.

Nothing else needed. If inside the received envelope there is a payment for someone else's apartment, this will also have to be reported to the taxorgans.

From now on, it is clear how dangerous the situation is when the apartment tax does not come. What to do in this or that case is also clear. In fact, with any delay in payments, it is best to call the tax office and find out the details of sending receipts there. Only reliable information will help to avoid problems.
