This is how you correctly state the practice fee in the tax return
Filling out your own tax return is sometimes not easy. With the countless forms, it is not easy to enter the expenditure in the correct line and code. The practice fee is an annoying evil for those with statutory health insurance, which can, however, be claimed for tax purposes.
This is how you correctly state the practice fee in your tax return
- Practice fees represent extraordinary burdens according to Section 33 of the Income Tax Act. Practice fees are part of the medical expenses that can be deducted from taxes, provided they have not been reimbursed by the health insurance company.
- Medical costs are therefore also: costs for glasses, dentures, shoe insoles etc. These costs can also be claimed as extraordinary charges.
- The practice fees or however, the medical expenses only have a tax effect if you exceed your own reasonable burden. The reasonable personal burden is calculated from your total income, the number of children and the application of the basic or splitting table. In concrete terms, this means that the less you earn and the more children you have, the lower your reasonable personal burden, so that the practice fees may have a tax-reducing effect.
- The practice fees are in the cover sheet, 3. Page, lines 68 and 69, code number 63 to be entered. The reimbursements from the health insurance company are also in the cover sheet, 3. Page, lines 68 and 69, code number 64 to be entered.
- Another point is, if you claim exceptional charges on your tax return, you need to provide information about your investment income so that Tax office can correctly calculate the reasonable own burden. The information on the investment income is also in the cover sheet, 3. Page, lines 72 resp. 73 to make.
