The 2018-2019 Income campaign began last Tuesday with some news that have to do with the reduction of quotas for the lowest rents and with the introduction of deductions. For the income statement to return, it is advisable to check the boxes related to the change in personal situations, exempt income or state and autonomous deductions, among other. Although only taxpayers who enter income from work of more than 22,000 euros from a payer or more than 12,643 euros from several payers are obliged to make the declaration, sometimes, it is on account to perform it to access different tax benefits.
In this line, María Concepción Saavedra Serrano, professor of the Department of Economics and Business at the European University, recalls the following: «When erentl result of Renta 2018 (model 100) Negative or to return (box 670), is due to the fact that the fee resulting from the self-assessment is lower than the amount of the payments on account (payments already made or anticipated by the taxpayer during that year), or by withholdings or income on account that have been practiced by the payers of various incomes (salary, bank interest, dividends, etc.) or for fractionated payments made by him, in the case of performing any economic activity as a professional or as an independent entrepreneur. These payments on account must be entered in boxes 560 to 568 of the declaration.

The taxpayer can deduct all the expenses necessary to obtain said returns: Property Tax (IBI), community expenses, conservation and repair expenses, property insurance premiums, mortgage loan interest, amortization of the part corresponding to the construction of said property and balances of doubtful collection when this circumstance is sufficiently justified, Saavedra Serrano points out. However, the professor from the European University recalls that "some of the expenses mentioned they have a limit (maintenance and repair costs and interest on mortgage loans). Also, if the property is a house, the net returns (income minus deductible expenses) are reduced by 60% ». Income, deductible expenses, reductions and other relevant information on real estate capital returns are reported in boxes 79 to 93.
