Field help: (2021) Amount

Here you can claim income-related expenses that can be directly assigned to tax-privileged pension payments.

Although a retiree, like an active civil servant, continues to be considered an employee, he or she is not entitled to the employee's allowance of 1.000 Euro. Instead, retirees - like pensioners - receive a flat-rate income-related allowance of 102 Euro.

If you have actually incurred higher income-related expenses in connection with pension payments, you can enter them here. These include, among others:

• Expenses for legal and tax advice,
• Legal costs,
• Postage costs,
• Telephone costs,
• Travel costs (travel allowance, 30 cents per kilometre),
• Expenses for travel by public transport,
• Other pension-related costs.
