Online filing

How to access your personal account
Starting in 2014, the password access method is the only method to access your online account to file and to access other online services provided by impots.gouv.fr within its securised individual space (payment, consultation of tax documents, online procedures...)
If this method of access hasn't been chosen by the taxpayer, he will be able to access his account using his login information (numéro fiscal, numéro de télédéclarant et revenu fiscal de référence). He will then have to choose a password.
2. How to choose a password
On the Individual space access screen on the website impots.gouv.fr, the taxpayer needs to fill
in (for the last time) his three login information :
- The"numéro fiscal" and the "numéro de télédéclarant" mentioned on the top left hand side of
the first page of form 2042 (for first time filers or for taxpayers that have asked not to receive the
paper version of form 2042, these numbers are on a specific letter sent by the tax administration)
- The "revenu fiscal de référence" can be found in section « Vos références » of your last tax bill
("avis d’impôt sur le revenu").
On the following screen, the taxpayer can choose his password (under his "numéro fiscal") and fill in his email address.
After validation, an email will be sent to the taxpayer. He will have to click on the link to validate
his password.
3. Advantages of a password protected access
•It's easy
The taxpayer doen't need his three identification codes to access the online services provided on impots.gouv.fr and his personal account.
To change your password or email address, all you have to do is click on the section « Mon profil », in your personal account.
•You can choose to have everything 100 % online
With this simplified access method, the taxpayer can also choose not to receive the paper version
of his tax return (next year) and his income tax bill and his occupant tax bill ("taxe d'habitation").
When the time comes, he will receive an email warning him that the different documents are
available in his personal account.
The service « Mon profil » allows the taxpayer to modify his options at any times and to go back to receiving the paper version of his documents (tax returns and tax bills) if he wants to.
Please enter a valid email address in case you forget your password and you need assistance from
