Today is the last day to claim the return of personal income tax if your child was born in 2014

On October 3, 2018, the Supreme Court ruled that the maternity benefits received from Social Security are exempt from the Income Tax for Individuals (Income Tax) in the non-prescribed years: 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017.

A month later, the Government extended that exemption to paternity benefits.

Of course, today ends the 2018 income campaign, which already incorporates that these benefits are exempt, so you do not have to do anything in those charged this year. But If you want to recover the personal income tax from 2014 maternity and paternity benefits, you must request it before the end of the day, because otherwise you will not be able to do it.

A few days ago, the Treasury recognized the right of reimbursement also to parents who had claimed the return before the Supreme Court ruling and had received an unfavorable resolution or sentence.

The measure was also extended to previous years not prescribed; that is, to all those who have received benefits in the years 2014 and following, but also to those previous years in which the resources had interrupted the prescription and, therefore, the four years established by law have not yet been completed.
