Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: How does the family quotient reduce taxes?
A: By splitting
taxable income among parts (marital status + children), lower tax brackets apply per
part. The tax per part is then multiplied by the number of parts to get the total
tax, resulting in significant savings for families.
Q: Are social contributions (CSG/CRDS) mandatory?
A: Yes, CSG
(Contribution Sociale Généralisée) and CRDS (Contribution pour le Remboursement de
la
Dette Sociale) are mandatory for most income types, totaling 9.7% on salaries and
investment income.
Q: Can I include deductible expenses?
A: Yes, professional
expenses (frais professionnels), alimony payments (pension alimentaire), and
charitable donations (dons aux oeuvres) are deductible from gross income.
Q: How do tax credits affect my final tax?
A: Tax credits
(crédits d'impôt) directly reduce the total tax owed. Common credits include
employment tax credit (prime pour l'emploi), energy renovation credit, and childcare
credits.
Q: Does this calculator replace official tax filings?
A: No, this
is an estimation tool for informational purposes only. For official tax filing
(déclaration de revenus), use the French tax authority (Direction Générale des
Finances Publiques) website or consult a tax professional.
Q: What is the difference between gross income and taxable income?
A: Gross income (revenu brut) is your total income before any deductions.
Taxable
income (revenu imposable) is gross income minus deductible expenses and allowances,
which is then used to calculate your tax.
Q: How many parts do I get for my children?
A: The first two
children count as 0.5 parts each. Starting from the third child, each additional
child counts as 1 full part. This significantly increases tax benefits for larger
families.
