Veranderingen inkomstenbelasting 2003 In de loop van 2003 is een aantal wijziging- en doorgevoerd in de inkomstenbelasting. Deze wijzigingen kunnen gevolgen hebben voor de belasting die u moet betalen of terugkrijgt. Op deze site vindt u een overzicht van enkele belangrijke wijzigingen. Let op! Als u in 2003 al maandelijks een voorlopige teruggaaf ontvangt, dan kan dit bedrag door deze wijzigingen te hoog of te laag zijn. Als u wilt voorkomen dat u op uw definitieve aanslag moet bijbetalen of als u recht heeft op een hogere voorlopige teruggaaf, dan kunt u een nieuw verzoek om voorlopige teruggaaf doen.

Exercise: Eye jump reading

Ø  Divide  each  pages  into  6  or  8  parts.  

10  minutes  (book)  

Ø  Example:   Veranderingen  inkomstenbelasJng  2003    In  de  loop  van  2003  is  een  aantal  wijziging-­‐  en  doorgevoerd  in  de  inkomstenbelas7ng.    Deze  wijzigingen  kunnen  gevolgen  hebben    voor  de  belas7ng  die  u  moet  betalen  of    terugkrijgt.  Op  deze  site  vindt  u  een  overzicht    van  enkele  belangrijke  wijzigingen.              Let  op!      Als  u  in  2003  al  maandelijks  een  voorlopige    teruggaaf  ontvangt,  dan  kan  dit  bedrag  door    deze  wijzigingen  te  hoog  of  te  laag  zijn.    Als  u  wilt  voorkomen  dat  u  op  uw  defini7eve    aanslag  moet  bijbetalen  of  als  u  recht  hee^    op  een  hogere  voorlopige  teruggaaf,  dan    kunt  u  een  nieuw  verzoek  om  voorlopige    teruggaaf  doen.
