Field help: (2024) Did <%0100801%> live in an EU/EEA country or Switzerland in 2024?

Select "yes" if you had your residence or usual place of abode in an EU/EEA country or Switzerland in 2024 – even temporarily.

This information is important because certain tax benefits (e.g. deduction of special expenses, spouse splitting, child allowance) are only granted if the residence was within the EU/EEA area or Switzerland.

Note: Even in the case of shared residence arrangements (e.g. Germany and EU abroad), "yes" must be selected if there was at least one residence in the EU/EEA area or Switzerland.
