However, so far, <strong>the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aade.gr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">AADE<\/a> has not completed sending the new notes<\/strong> to businesses.<\/p>\n\n<p>According to reports, this <strong>delay<\/strong> is <strong>due to<\/strong> the <strong>problems<\/strong> identified in several cases. <strong>Problems which are not addressed even by the latest decision of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.minfin.gr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ministry of Finance<\/a><\/strong>. This <strong>modified<\/strong> <strong>the conditions<\/strong> for the refundable advance and the <strong>staff<\/strong> <strong>retention<\/strong> <strong>clause<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>This decision was adopted in order to <strong>cover<\/strong> <strong>companies<\/strong> with <strong>formal<\/strong> <strong>infringements<\/strong>. The rationale was to <strong>save<\/strong> them from a <strong>one-off<\/strong> and <strong>sharp<\/strong> <strong>repayment<\/strong> of <strong>100 %<\/strong> of <strong>the financial assistance<\/strong>. Competent agents of the Ministry of Finance now leave open the <strong>possibility<\/strong> of <strong>new<\/strong> <strong>corrections<\/strong>. They are even talking about <strong>extending<\/strong> the <strong>deadline<\/strong> for the <strong>one-off<\/strong> <strong>repayment<\/strong> of the refundable advance. This measure will apply to those who ultimately <strong>did not comply<\/strong> with the <strong>conditions<\/strong> of the refundable advance.<\/p>\n\n<p>At the same time, <strong>the verification of the validity<\/strong> or otherwise of the supporting documents sent by businesses <strong>until 30 December 2022<\/strong> is completed. <strong>By the end of the month, AADE<\/strong> will send the <strong>tax clearance notice to the personal account<\/strong> of each business and professional.

The completion of the reviews will give the <strong>green light for the payment of government loans<\/strong> to those who qualify.

The <strong>amounts<\/strong> will be &#8220;<strong>trimmed&#8221;<\/strong> by up to <strong>75%.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>It should be noted that the current framework <strong>provides that<\/strong> if <strong>the review<\/strong> reveals the validity of the request, <strong>the file is sent by the competent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.minfin.gr\/web\/gdoy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DGOY<\/a> to the Hellenic Revenue Authority for review.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Subsequently, the AADE carries out a new automated verification of the conditions, taking into account <strong>only the data declared by the company to the tax administration<\/strong>, without prejudice to the provisions of these decisions on cross-checks and tax audits.
