The Caf (tax assistance centres) are also launching the sprint for the 730/2026 tax return (due to be closed by 30 September), after the pre-filled form was made available in the reserved area of the Revenue website. "We are ready to go full steam ahead," explains Giovanni Angileri, coordinator of the national council of Cafes, who emphasises the climate of "full cooperation with the Agency" that has already led to two clarifications via faq (anticipated by a article on NT+ Fisco and on "Il Sole 24 Ore" of 1 May). Faq with which it was clarified that the new cut in the wedge provided for by the 2025 manoeuvre concerns employee income and replacement benefits, such as unemployment benefits, but not assimilated income.

The Scope

A topic, that of the correct definition of the application perimeter of the new cut in the tax wedge and the effects on both the Single Certifications (Cu) of the income of the tax substitutes and consequently on the pre-compiled 730, which the Caf council has placed at the centre - as a note points out - of 'a joint action with the Revenue Agency to address and resolve the anomalies that have emerged'. Also in view of the impact of the measure in support of low and medium incomes.

Already overcome anomalies

Moreover, the path taken so far shows how the direct thread with the Revenue is aimed at overcoming any obstacles. "On the occasion of the publication of the C.I.C. fixed for 16 March 2026, the Consulta immediately pointed out the anomalies that led to the non-recognition of the benefit for recipients of income support benefits (Naspi, cassa integrazione, isopensione, Ape sociale), activating the necessary interlocutions with the Revenue Agency and Inps, and on 30 March a new issue of over 3 million certifications was made, allowing the resolution of most of the problems that had emerged in the initial phase.

Inps: unique certifications already updated in the pre-filled form

Inps, too, with a series of faq on its website explained for which unique certifications the update was made. "The 2026 single certification has been updated only for holders of income support benefits (e.g. Naspi, Cigo, wage integration allowances) to enable them to benefit, when filing their income tax return, from the tax wedge reduction measures provided for by Budget Law 207/2024 such as the additional non-taxable amount or the additional deduction."

This allows those who are entitled to it to take advantage of the facilitation directly in the declaration. 'The information in the updated Cu,' explains another Inps faq, 'is already automatically incorporated in the pre-filled tax return (Modello 730 e Modello Redditi PF). This will allow the taxpayer to be able to accept the pre-filled tax return as proposed, without having to make any changes' for tax benefits.

Channel open with the Agency also for the case of the Building Funds

The Caf council then assures that 'even for residual critical issues such as the Building Funds and Formatemp, discussions are underway with the tax agency in order to find an operational solution in a short time'. But also that it 'will continue to monitor the evolution of the situation and to intervene with employers and competent bodies to provide taxpayers with the necessary guarantee of quality tax assistance'.

It was precisely the case of the Construction Funds (in relation to the subject of the Ape: professional seniority in construction) that had been among those posed by the CGIL in the note circulated on the eve of the making available of the pre-compiled form. This note was followed by a note from the Inland Revenue.

The other issues addressed

There is a lot of background work, therefore, to get the correct income data in the pre-compiled tax return from the Inland Revenue. The Caf council, in fact, points out that 'other reports from other substitutes such as NoiPa (only for recipients of temporary benefits), the Carabinieri Administrative Centre, Randstad, have also been promptly resolved with the reissue of the certifications, now correctly compiled and acquired in the precompiled system'.

Advisory coordinator: real-time feedback

Despite the ever-increasing number of pre-filled 730s sent by do-it-yourself taxpayers (in 2025 there were 5.4 million with a growth of 8% over the previous year and 31.7% over 2021), the coordinator of the Caf Council, Giovanni Angileri, recalls that the majority of 730s still go through Caf assistance. A question of numbers, considering that the 730 model was used by no less than 25.2 million Italians. So there is still a strong figure of those who prefer to bear the cost of tax assistance to handle the verification and sending of their tax returns.

And, also for the 2026 declaration campaign, Angileri launches the Caf's commitment, inviting taxpayers 'to turn to our counters to check their situation also by consulting their tax drawer where information on single certifications will be available in real time'.
