Lohnsteuer kompakt FAQs

 


Field help: Pension amount 2025 (gross pension without subsidies)

Enter the pension amount here. This is also referred to as the annual pension or annual gross pension. This includes one-off payments, back payments or pension adjustment amounts if they were received in 2025.

What is included in the pension amount?

The amount to be entered includes the total gross pension amount for the calendar year 2025, including one-off or back payments as well as pension adjustments, provided they were received in the same year.

Do not deduct: Contributions to health and nursing care insurance that were withheld upon payment must not be deducted from the gross pension. Please enter these further down in the "Health insurance details" section.

Do not add: Pension insurance subsidies for health insurance are tax-free and are not added to the pension amount.

Where can I find the pension amount?

All tax-relevant amounts for pensions from Germany can be found in the "Information on the notification to the tax authorities" from the German Pension Insurance (DRV).

Relevant information on foreign pensions can be found in the documents from the pension provider – such as the approval notice or a pension statement.
