Actual wages/salary 2017

This text refers to the Steuererklärung 2018. You can find the version for the Steuererklärung 2024 at:
(2024): Actual wages/salary 2017
Actual wages/salary 2017

Specify the actual remuneration for the year 2017. You can find this amount, for example, in a statement from your employer.

If the remuneration subject to pension insurance is higher than the remuneration actually earned, this is taken into account in the calculation of the bonus entitlement.

Actual remuneration can usually only be paid to persons,

  • Who are in partial retirement,
  • Who are employed as disabled persons in institutions of the youth welfare service or in workshops for disabled persons,
  • Who are employed in addition to their vocational training,
  • Who are to be qualified for employment,
  • Who are insured for periods of incapacity for work or rehabilitation without entitlement to sickness benefit,
  • who receive early retirement, sickness, unemployment, unemployment II, maintenance, interim benefit, injury or sickness benefits or
  • Who do not provide care for a person in need of long-term care for at least 14 hours a week at his/her home.

In the case of partial retirement, the amount of remuneration achieved as a result of reduced working hours - without supplementary and differential amounts - is decisive. The 2017 actual remuneration achieved can be found, for example, in a statement from the employer.
