In short, the Bengodi, which initially very few took advantage of because as soon as the standard was approved there was the lockdown. Then many noticed it. It is no coincidence that 46% of the scams attributable to the trade of tax credits are related to the bonus facade which in theory could be disguised by anyone with an open construction site. Let alone scam professionals who are never lacking in Italy. For the same reason, the concessions for the normal renovations of the first house for which there is an expenditure ceiling of 96 thousand euros, but no special certifications are required apart from the building practice. 110%, on the other hand, is another planet and is abnormal not only in terms of the size of the tax credit it generates, but also in terms of certifications and sworn statements to be produced. In fact, it exclusively concerns interventions on the energy saving (insulation of the roof, coat, boiler, windows, photovoltaic, etc) which have always been the subject of specific certifications to which the gluttonous facility has added a sort of initial and final appraisal by a qualified technician, as well as aassertionand of the construction manager and one of the tax advisor. All responsible and / or liable for any incorrect or false statements.
In practice, in order to collect the 110% credit, you have to deliver a stack of documents that is the envy of a notary. Not to mention that the work plan it must respect a very specific schedule and stay within predefined price ceilings. A game that would be worth the candle anyway, if it weren’t for the fact that the Italian condominiums went crazy and started making interventions that were not always necessary, but that being in fact free it was a shame not to do them. And so businesses have gone haywire and can’t keep up with demand.
In all this the banking system he found the deal by developing financial products to get the customer to do the work with interest and then buy the credit. Which is certain only if the works respond to the requests of the state. So all the practices are subjected to apreventive analysis by consulting multinationals. Not only that, in most cases the institutions make the customer sign one release that it binds it in the event that the credit is not recognized by the Revenue Agency for any reason. It being understood that the customer must be able to pay back the institution who financed the work in case there are problems with the congruity with respect to the bonus parameters. In other words, no bank finances 110% of the work to people who would not be able to pay for it themselves. Hence the mythical controls of the credit system.
The speech of Italian post who has staked a lot on the direct purchase of credits, that is, he bought the credit from those who had financed the work himself by anticipating the money that the citizen or company would have collected in five-year installments from the State by putting it in the tax return. A trade also made by the other banks but they gave funding priority because they are more profitable. The investigation in this case was the same that is carried out in the tax return: we await the ok from theRevenue Agency who receives the statement of credit transfer from the taxpayer and any documentation already in the possession of the Agency, at least for the accounting part since electronic invoices and so-called talking transfers. This is because it is “only” a matter of anticipating the credit that the State normally gives back in a number of years (5 for 110% and 10 for the others).
And here we come to the reasons of the state. On the one hand, there are checks that can be done within ten years, like the same Revenue Agency had pointed out a ilfattoquotidiano.it at the end of 2020 when this newspaper had questioned precisely on the quality control of credits and in particular on those accrued without certifications and sworn translations, i.e. the bonus facade. When asked: “Do you also confirm that the credit creation procedure and its monetization is automatic after sending the appropriate form to the agency?”, The answer was that “the procedure is online and automatic … then the times and controls are another story ”.
Another point that is not secondary and well known to the State Accounting as for Minister Franco, as well as most likely the head of government, it is that the tax credits thus monetized are no longer probable / possible debts of the State towards citizens and / or companies, which over the canonical ten years of collection in the tax return they may lose the right to receive them, but they become certain and immediately liquidable. And this can be a problem, even a serious one, for the public purse.
