Automatic remission

Responsible use

Goal and impact

PURPOSE: By combining income data, vehicle data, financial information and household, determine whether we can automatically waive municipal waste levy.


IMPACT: None. If remission is not granted automatically, citizens can apply for it through the regular route for the time being.

Considerations

Citizens do not have to reapply for remission every year and we ease administrative burdens.

Human intervention

If it turns out that the citizen is not eligible for an automatic waiver, the municipality of Maassluis will send a letter with a form with which a citizen can still apply with all the necessary information.

Risk management

The biggest risk is in the use of reference dates of assets: reality may have changed in the meantime. This is not a risk for automatic waiver but can also occur for non-automatic waiver. If automatic remission is not eligible, citizens can still submit a request through the regular route.

Legal basis

Municipalities Act; Collection Act; Collection Act Implementation Regulations; Co-government Tax Remission Regulations

  • Removal declarations

    Municipality of Utrecht

    With the limited automatic assessment of removal declarations, we will be able to process removal declarations from our residents better and faster. This is done because we check these removal applications against checks to be set by the municipality of Utrecht. These checks include, for example, whether someone is already registered at the new address or if an address search is ongoing

  • Selection module Actual Return on Investment (selection module OWR)

    Dutch Tax and Customs Administration

    Concerns an algorithm with selection rules that assesses whether Actual Return Returns (OWRs) submitted by taxpayers can be directly processed into an Income Tax assessment without the intervention of a Tax Administration staff member, or whether further assessment by a staff member is required. The algorithm will be used when processing OWRs for the years 2017 to 2024.
