Taxation of pension income? The Federal Constitutional Court has obliged the legislature to standardise the taxation of civil servants&#8217; pensions and pensions from statutory pension insurance.<br \/>\nWith the coming into force of the Retirement Income Act, there will be a gradual transition to uniform, deferred taxation. From 2040, all pensions and other retirement income will be 100% taxable.<br \/>\nCause: Only partial deductibility of contributions: Mirroring this, regrettably, expenses for statutory or private old-age provision are also only tax-exempt in stages. At present these expenditures, the ?contributions to the age precaution?, are considered only partially tax-reducing as so-called special contributions.<br \/>\nKeep receipts: Who already before coming into force of the age income law &#8211; thus before the year 2005 &#8211; contributions to the age precaution paid, might be likewise disadvantaged, because also these contributions were often put ?as special expenditures? only partly tax-free. This point can offer with beginning of the pension payment with up to 100% tax liability presumably likewise cause for arguments with the tax authorities. Therefore, the corresponding receipts should be kept carefully.<br \/>\n<b>Argumentation: <\/b> If it is already certain for the contributor today that the pensions must be taxed at 100%, then it is obviously a question of ?pre-caused income-related expenses?, <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/EStG\/9.html\" title=\"&sect; 9 EStG: Werbungskosten\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\">\u00a7 9 EStG<\/a>.<br \/>\nIt follows from the systematics of the law that special expenses can only be expenses that are neither business expenses nor income-related expenses.

A complaint will probably not be necessary, because the Federal Minister of Finance announced with letter of 30.06.2006 (file reference: Az: IV A 7 &#8211; S 0622 &#8211; 20\/06, in: DStR 2006, p. 1371) that with objections, which are inserted exclusively because of the Nichtabziehbarkeit of pension insurance contributions as anticipated Werbungskosten, an amicable procedure silence for expediency reasons (<a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/AO\/363.html\" title=\"&sect; 363 AO: Aussetzung und Ruhen des Verfahrens\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\">\u00a7 363 exp. 2 p. 1 AO<\/a>) can be considered.<br \/>\nA decree of the OFD Koblenz dated 10.07.2006 also opens up the possibility of raising objections regarding the non-deductibility of pension insurance contributions as anticipated income-related expenses in the case of income within the meaning of <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/EStG\/22.html\" title=\"&sect; 22 EStG: Arten der sonstigen Eink&uuml;nfte\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\">\u00a7 22 no. 1 EStG<\/a> with the consent of the objector for reasons of expediency in accordance with <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/EStG\/22.html\" title=\"&sect; 22 EStG: Arten der sonstigen Eink&uuml;nfte\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\">\u00a7 22 no. 1 EStG<\/a>. \u00a7 363 para. 2 sentence 1 AO to be suspended.<br \/>\n<b>Sample objection: <\/b> Several sample formulations can be found on the Internet, for example at <link http:=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stbverband-berlin-bb.de\/archiv\/Mustereinspruch_Rentenbesteuerung\/.\" class=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.stbverband-berlin-bb.de\/archiv\/Mustereinspruch_Rentenbesteuerung\/.<\/a><\/LINK><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>*by Johannes Fiala, Lawyer (Munich), MBA Financial Services (Univ.Wales), MM (Univ.), Certified Financial and Investment Advisor (A.F.A.), EC Expert (C.I.F.E.), Lecturer (Univ. of Cooperative Education), Banker (fiala4instalive.instawp.xyz) Double?
