Up to 100 euros of interest per month and per household with the LEP, deadline for the declaration of real estate, cash accounts which bring in more and more… Here are the 3 infos that you should not miss on this Thursday August 10.
LEP: a rise in the ceiling that pays off
6% against 3%: since August 1, the People’s Savings Booklet (LEP) has brought in twice as much as the Livret A. It is even above inflation, making it the only available and secure savings product to show a positive rel yield. The other good news is that the lucky owners of an LEP will be able to invest more money in it: 10,000 euros, from October 1st, against 7700 euros currently. Enough to earn up to 50 euros in interest per month, and even 100 euros for married or civil partnership couples, who can open two. For details, it’s here.
Deadline for the declaration of real estate
It’s one of the soap operas of the summer. Since January 1, property owners have been required to declare to the tax authorities, via the internet, the occupancy status of their property. Objective: to identify the premises still liable for council tax.

Initially, the deadline for completing this declaration was set at the end of June. But, faced with the ignorance and, sometimes, the incomprehension of the owners, it was postponed twice, at the end of July and then on August 10. This time, however, it’s the right one: the DGFiP confirmed today that there would be no new delay. What do you risk if you forgot this statement? Explanations here.
