The income and wealth tax return campaign begins on 16th April and will end on 26th June.
Once again this year, it can be presented under three modalities:
- Acceptance of the proposal sent by the Treasury.
- Mechanized, by appointment.
- By internet, with operative key, electronic signature or fiscal representative.
The Provincial Treasury of Guipuzcoa has planned to prepare some 200,000 proposals. During last year’s campaign in 2015, 217,744 proposals were accepted, which represents 86% of the total number of proposals sent in.
Next we are going to explain how is the calculation of the taxable base in the IRPF of 2016:
Exempt Income:
- Disability benefits.
-
- Benefits recognised to the taxpayer by the Social Security, or by the entities that replace it, as a consequence of absolute permanent incapacity or severe disability. Also the total if you are over 55 years old and have no other income from work (active) over 600 euros or activities, except for the first year.
- Likewise, pensions from the Compulsory Old Age and Disability Insurance (SOVI) will be exempt when they are caused by the taxpayer’s disability.
- Public and Social Security benefits.
-
- Orphan’s pension and family benefits.
- Unemployment benefit.
- In the form of a single payment.
- Irregular income (work, capital, activity)
-
- Between 2 and 5 years: 60%.
- More than 5 years: 50%.
- Qualified by regulations as irregular: 50% (40% up to 60,000 euros for amounts received by mutual agreement termination of the employment relationship).
- Limit for the application of the reduction of irregular income from work, activities, movable capital and real estate capital: €300,000 for each type of income.
