Field help: (2018) Average assets 2018

Enter here the average amount of assets that were available to the supported person.

For tax purposes, a deduction of maintenance expenses is only possible if the person receiving support has no or very little assets. Assets of more than 15.500 Euro lead to the tax office not recognizing maintenance expenses.

In this case, the supported person must first realise his or her assets. Only then is he or she considered to be in need. However, an adequately-sized house plus land is not taken into account when calculating the assets.
