Overview

• The French government will implement pre-filled resource declarations for RSA and activity bonus recipients nationwide beginning March 2025.
• The reform, known as 'Solidarity at the Source,' was piloted in five departments since October 2024 and is modeled after pre-filled tax declarations.
• The system automatically integrates income data from employers, significantly reducing the manual effort required from beneficiaries.
• Critics, including unions like the CGT, argue the reform may not address the high non-claim rate for RSA and could lead to reduced human support and increased reliance on digital tools.
• Supporters highlight the potential to simplify processes for the 6 million eligible recipients but acknowledge concerns over the reform's broader implications.
