This is the case, for example, of this little-known paper: the IFU, for a single tax form, which is sent to you by the establishments in which you hold investments. This summary document summarizes all the taxable capital income that was paid to you last year, including interest on bank accounts, for example. The IFU is there to help you declare your income for tax and check that the amounts pre-filled by the tax authorities are correct. Here’s how to use it properly.
Supporting documents to be kept carefully
Among the other documents found, there are, for example, tax receipts for donations to associations, tax certificates for school fees, the tax certificate for an individual employer (Cesu or Pajemploi), proof of transport costs for taxpayers who deduct their actual expenses for the use of their vehicle used for professional purposes, or even the latest tax certificate from Cnav for the basic pension or from the supplementary Agirc-Arrco for former private sector employees.

Good to know: it is not necessary to attach your supporting documents to the income declaration. They must be kept for three years after the tax year in order to produce them upon request from your public finance center.
Among the other documents that may be useful for your income declaration, there is also the daily allowance statement following sick leave, the bank identity statement (RIB) or even your salary slip from December 2022 which contains the annual summary of your income.
