Don't pay more personal income tax
Until July 1 (until June 26 electronically) there is time to submit the 2018 income and equity declarations.
Be careful with the drafts sent by the Tax Agency. Many errors and omissions of deductions are detected. On the other hand, the AEAT is not responsible in any case for what the draft says.
If in doubt, consult a professional. Surely you get it on account.
