oh
we were given the form to take to the impots in october by our builder (which we did) they told us to add it to our form in may and it would be processed then; maybe it is because the work was commenced in november 2007?

Thats standard, You get the rebate After you have completed and returned your end of year assessment. There is no way for you to get it prior to then. Im not sure what the claim cut off time was. But any work now being done would not qualify for the rebate. Something we did find that was most Impots employees did not understand the rules claiming that the work and parts purchased needed to be carried out by an Artisan with a siret number, Every time I was told this I left the Office just a wee bit hot under the collar. I turned around to the Oh and said fine when the end of year form comes in we will include it so at least then we can take it to an Independent assessment if they say no, Guess what they Paid. A lot of fuss because I had purchased the wood central heating system and installed it myself. So I had invoices for the Purchasing of New Equipment but no Installation Invoice.
When you visit the Impots all they ever do is get a big Book out with the rules in, every employee interprets them in a different fashion so you san see three people in a week and get different answers from all of them.
- I was beginning to worry a bit there

Thank you, Blackie! Good to know there are good, honest guys around here. As my own finances are no longer sufficient (thanks, Mr Brown & Co!), question is do they also have money?

Bonjour Sheila,
Have you any idea which part of France you are interested in, the country is so vast, the weather temperatures can vary so much from one end of the country to the other and the culture is so varied as well. We are in south west France in the Gironde and we are enjoying spring-like temperatures already. The people are friendly and very helpful and English are fewer in numbers than say the Dordogne. France can be everything and anything you want it to be. Even with limited French, you can get by. We are by no means fluent, but we get what we want in shops and restaurants and even hold conversation with the natives. We love living here and will never return to England to live.
Jenny and Charlie.
