Treasury improves personal income tax for pension plans

The Treasury has decided to maintain at 10,000 euros the maximum limit for the amounts contributed to social security systems, which have not been subject to a reduction in the tax base of the Personal Income Tax (IRPF) for periods prior to 2022, with regardless of whether they come from the worker or from the company.

In this way, the current proportionality of contributions is eliminated, which limits those of the worker to 1,500 euros and those of the company to the remaining 8,500 euros, for amounts from previous years that could not be reduced due to insufficient tax base. or for exceeding the established percentage limit.

Thus, it appears in the draft Regulation, which the Treasury has currently published for public consultation, in which this application is simplified both for the Tax Agency and for taxpayers, since the Tax Administration recognizes in the text that the current system added enormous complexity to the scheme of reduction limits in the tax base.

For this reason, the calculations to be carried out to carry out the imputations of the amounts not reduced in previous periods are simplified, at the same time as it is guaranteed that only the amounts that were contributed can be reduced while respecting the financial limit.
