The taxman is always inflexible when it comes to asking for money from Italians but the unexpected blackout of these days has changed the cards and luckily it has done so in favor of the citizens.
On Wednesday, the Revenue Agency suffered a real blockade of its portal. A blackout of the web platform of the Revenue Agency so it had never been seen before and the disservices to the citizens were impressive.
At first there was talk with conviction of a cyber attack, but then it was realized that it was simply a malfunction and that user data had not been stolen or manipulated in any way.
What changes with the extension of the tax authorities
The inconvenience for taxpayers was indeed considerable and so the tax authorities rightly decided on a series of extensions. Therefore, for all the deadlines that occurred on Wednesday and last Thursday, the Revenue Agency established an extension of 10 days.
Let’s see concretely what changes for taxpayers. There will be time until April 11, 2022 to get back in order with the deadlines of the Revenue Agency. In fact the March 31 there have even been hours of problems to access the portals and this has sent all the operations that had to be carried out in those days into a tailspin.
The new extension that makes taxpayers breathe
So now the Inland Revenue has clarified the terms of this extension better. So from 1 April everything has been postponed by 10 days thanks to this extension. Among other things, also the communications of discounts, options and transfers relating to the world of home bonuses and which should have been sent by 5 April they will be loaded by 10. So a series of extensions in a certain sense to apologize to the citizens for the very serious inconvenience caused a few days ago.
Not an easy situation
An extension in this period of severe crisis is cCertainly very well accepted by taxpayers and remember that many of them are still caught up in the ugly question of Tax peace and if they do not respect the punctual deadlines established by the executive, they will forfeit the benefits with serious damage to them and to the whole country. Cgia di Mestre points out that there are many VAT numbers and small businesses high risk of closure and there are calls for minimum supportive measures for survival such as European universal basic income which hopefully will start perhaps already this year.
