No, this is not an error. If you see a transfer in your bank account in the coming days, worded “Revenue Revenues”, coming from public finances, that’s normal. As every year, following the declaration of income, some taxpayers benefit from a refund when the amounts already paid exceed the tax ultimately due.
Indeed, a few weeks ago, you filled – or reread – your 2025 income declaration, relating to the income received in 2024. On this occasion, three situations could arise: either you still have a tax balance, or you are up to date and have nothing to pay, or you were too much led last year and you have right to a refund. In the majority of cases, you will not have any steps to be taken and will be reimbursed automatically: either by transfer, if your bank details are known to the tax administration, or by check sent by mail if you have not updated this information at the end of June, specifies the taxman Capital.
When will tax be reimbursed in 2025?
The regularization campaign will take place, as every year, at the same time as the online posting of your tax notice. As a reminder, this document will arrive in your particular space on the tax site.gouv.fr between July 25 and August 1, 2025. If you continue to receive a paper opinion, it will arrive between July 24 and August 28, 2025.
According to the Directorate General of Public Finances (DGFIP), your refund on your too much tax of 2024 will take place either Friday July 25 Or Friday August 1, 2025. If this regularization is made directly on your bank account, the transfer will have been labeled “Revenue Revenues” on your bank statement and will be indicated as coming from “DGFIP Finances”.
Conversely, you may have a tax balance to be paid in September 2025. This can happen if the withholding taxes made in 2024 were insufficient, especially if you did not update your rate following a change of situation. In this case, if the remaining amount due is less than 300 euros, it will be deducted in one go in September. Beyond 300 euros, payment will be automatically distributed in four monthly samples, from September to December.
