Question juridique clé
Whether the taxpayer was entitled to an interim assessment from 7 November 1997 due to starting self-employment.
Solution extraite
No. The shift from employed work to loss-making self-employment did not amount to a career change justifying interim assessment.
Motifs extraits
The taxpayer continued to earn his income from employment in the following years, while the self-employed activity produced only losses for years; a genuine professional change was therefore absent.
