The afterlife of tax data
The Tax Blog of Crónica Tributaria publishes a weekly entry on different aspects of taxation. On Wednesday, January 25, an entry written by Rafael Frutos Vivar, Deputy Director General of Budgeting and Monitoring of Tax Revenues of the Tax Studies and Statistics Service of the Tax Agency, was published with the title The other life of tax data.
In the entry, the author refers to the tax data that, year after year, the Tax Agency makes available to citizens to facilitate the filing of our Income Tax return and highlights the value of the information system that, over the last thirty years, the Tax Agency has been consolidating, which is based on two pillars: self-assessment models and third-party information models.
Tax data not only facilitates tax management, but is also useful for other possibilities in the field of public statistics, as explained by the author.
