Hola a Todos!
This is Augusto Corallo from Mexico City.
The head of the Tax Administration Service (SAT) is not ruling out changes to taxes in the budget for 2016, provided that they will not affect public finances.
The priority has been put to ensure that the country’s revenues maintain healthy public finances and don’t threaten macroeconomic stability. And also be sure that family economies aren’t affected.
The SAT chief added that the punctuality with which the 49 million taxpaying Mexicans file their tax returns is cushioning the blow dealt by the fall in revenues and petrol production levels.
During the International Digital Tax forum, organized by the Mexican Certification Providers Association (Amexipac), it was said that taxation levels in 2016 will remain the same, and that in these difficult economic conditions it is the Mexican taxpayer who is sticking up for the country.
Although economic growth has not been as strong as expected this year, tax revenues have increased by 247 billion pesos ($14.3 billion), representing a 20 percent growth on the figure projected by the Federal Revenue Law in July.
