Mandatory Advance Tax Payments

Mandatory payments. As seen in item 4, advance payments are payments on account of a charge to be settled later. Payments on account can be of three kinds:

• Deductions (Withholdings): These consist of a subject who, when making payments to another, retains or detracts an amount from the total paid. This amount enters the Treasury in the name of the taxpayer and is realized when this settlement takes place at another time.

Delay in Performance

An obligation is required where the creditor can effectively demand payment from the debtor. This can be done from the moment the obligation arises, unless there is an initial term or a condition precedent; in such cases, the creditor must wait for the deadline or for the condition to be met.

The mere delay in the performance of the obligation does not automatically lead to the responsibility of the debtor. For this to occur, it is necessary that the delay does not prevent the subsequent performance of the duty, because if it did, it would constitute a total default.

Default by the Debtor

This can be defined as a delay in the breach of the obligation by the debtor that does not preclude or render late...
