How to calculate the tax refund amount?

During the period from 10 in 2022 to 1 2 in 2023, all taxpayers who meet the tax refund conditions will be refunded their personal income tax if the newly purchased housing amount is greater than or equal to the current housing transfer amount; When the newly purchased housing amount is less than the current housing transfer amount, the individual income tax paid for the current housing will be refunded according to the proportion of the newly purchased housing amount to the current housing transfer amount. The calculation formula is:

1) If the amount of newly purchased housing is greater than or equal to the current amount of housing transfer, the tax refund amount = personal income tax paid at the time of current housing transfer;

2) If the amount of newly purchased housing is less than the amount of current housing transfer, the amount of tax refund = (amount of newly purchased housing ÷ amount of current housing transfer) × individual income tax paid when current housing transfer.

Among them, the original housing transfer amount and the newly purchased housing amount do not include value-added tax.

Example 2: On June 5438+ 10, 2022, the taxpayer Xiao Wang sold the house for 5 million yuan and paid personal income tax of 654.38+10,000 yuan. In May 2023, Wang Mai Jr. bought a house of 6 million yuan. Since the amount of newly purchased housing is greater than the current amount of housing transfer, the amount of small tax refund is 654.38 million yuan of personal income tax paid at the time of current housing transfer.

If the house in Wang Mai is only 4 million, you can apply for a tax refund of 80,000 yuan (4 million ÷ 5 million× 65438+10,000 = 80,000).

How to calculate the tax rebate if many people have housing?

When selling houses jointly held by many people, or newly purchasing houses jointly held by many people, the taxpayer's current housing transfer amount or newly purchased housing amount shall be determined according to the share of property rights enjoyed by taxpayers.

Example 3: Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang each own a house, each accounting for 50% of the property rights of the house. From June, 5438 to June, 2023 10, they transferred their houses at a price of 4 million yuan, and each paid personal income tax of 20,000 yuan.

In May of the same year, Xiao Wang bought a new house in the same city for 3 million yuan. When Xiao Wang applied for tax refund, the current housing transfer amount was 2 million yuan (4 million× 50% = 2 million yuan), and the newly purchased housing amount was 3 million yuan. The tax refund amount = personal income tax paid at the current housing transfer = 20,000 yuan.

In June of the same year, Xiao Zhang and others bought a house in the same city for 3 million yuan, accounting for 50% of the property rights of the house. When Xiao Zhang applied for tax refund, his current housing transfer amount was 2 million yuan (4 million× 50% = 2 million yuan), the newly purchased housing amount was 6.5438+0.5 million yuan (3 million× 50% = 6.5438+0.5 million yuan), and the tax refund amount was = (newly purchased housing amount ÷ current housing transfer amount) × current.
