    FAQ: Tax Advisory Services

    What are the responsibilities of FTO as a tax advisor in Villeneuve-d'Ascq?

    How can I legally reduce my income tax?

    You can legally reduce your income tax in France using several effective methods.

    One effective strategy is real estate investment, particularly using tax schemes such as the furnished rental status (LMNP), which grants significant tax benefits.

    You can also consider life insurance: after eight years, it offers reduced taxation and serves as a powerful wealth transfer tool.

    Investing in SMEs or tax-incentivized investment funds (FIP and FCPI) can grant tax reductions of up to 25% of the invested amount, subject to eligibility.

    These strategies are only part of the picture! We’re here to guide you uncover the most effective tax-reduction paths for optimal savings.

    What should I do in case of a tax audit?

    The first step is to carefully analyze the request from the tax authorities to determine which documents are required and which period is concerned.

    A solid response relies on the availability of justifying paperwork, such as invoices, bank statements, or agreements, to support the compliance of your tax declaration.

    It is important to respect the deadlines, as missing the deadline may lead to penalties.

    Generally, the tax administration allows a one-month deadline to submit the requested documents.

    To prevent missteps that could make things worse, it is wise to seek assistance from a tax expert, like us.

    If inaccuracies or gaps are identified, non-contentious options are possible.

    Discussions may help reduce sanctions and reach a solution under the most favorable terms.

    With our in-depth knowledge and official recognition by French tax services, we ensure a reliable and compliant management of these procedures, so you can feel confident when facing a tax audit.

    What is the difference between a tax advisor and a tax lawyer?

    The roles of a tax advisor and a tax lawyer complement each other, but they differ in their areas of intervention and the needs they address.

    Professionals like French Tax Online guide taxpayers and business owners in minimizing their tax burden.

    Their knowledge helps decrease taxes in compliance with the law, file tax returns correctly, and adopt the best fiscal strategies.

    Their approach is risk-avoidant, aiming to avoid risks of tax reassessment.

    A tax lawyer, on the other hand, is a specialist in tax law, who primarily deals with conflicts with tax authorities.

    They are qualified to represent clients in court and conduct proceedings for their clients.

    Their role becomes indispensable when administrative talks break down and judicial action is needed.
