The income tax return is a crucial document in the fiscal field, since it records the income, expenses and investments of taxpayers. This document, which is submitted to the National Tax and Customs Directorate (DIAN), is essential for the State to determine whether the taxpayer must pay taxes and, if so, how much they must pay.

Recently, the DIAN has issued an alert following a preliminary assessment of the income tax returns filed. To date, 2.25 million taxpayers have filed their returns, but the entity has indicated that at least 90,000 of them contain errors and inconsistencies. This represents approximately 4% of the returns filed by natural persons.
Among the most frequently identified errors, the DIAN has found that some taxpayers have attempted to reduce their taxable base and, therefore, their income tax. “One of the inconsistencies found is that, with the intention of lowering the taxable base and therefore the income tax, people with unusual identifications are being included as dependents, such as “zero” or with sequential numbers “1234…” “2222″ “5678″, among others,” they indicated.
Called to correct errors
The DIAN has made an urgent call to taxpayers to make the necessary corrections in their declarations as soon as possible. It is essential that errors are corrected to avoid sanctions and future problems with the entity.
In addition, the DIAN has indicated that, although many taxpayers have filed their declaration, not all have made the corresponding payment. To facilitate compliance, the entity has launched an option of payment facilities for those who require it. Taxpayers interested in this option must follow these steps: file the declaration well in advance of the due date and carry out the corresponding procedure, taking into account the time required for verification and granting of the payment facility.
