When two or more taxpayers have the right to apply the deduction and the right is transferred to one of them, the amount will not be prorated, but will be applied entirely by the taxpayer in whose favor the deduction was transferred.

To calculate the deduction:

  • You will be entitled to the deduction in the months in which any of the eligible taxpayers meets the established requirements.

  • For Group 1, the total contributions and fees to Social Security and Mutual Insurance corresponding to all taxpayers who were entitled to the deduction will be taken into account jointly.

  • For Collective 2 no limit will be taken into account.

  • Any amounts that have been received in advance will be considered to have been obtained by the taxpayer in whose favour the deduction has been assigned.

When the early receipt of the deduction has been chosen by submitting a collective application, the right to the deduction will be deemed to have been transferred in favor of the first applicant.

In the remaining cases, the right to the deduction will be understood to have been transferred in favor of the taxpayer who applies the deduction in their declaration, and this circumstance must be stated in the declaration of all taxpayers who have the right to the deduction.

This deduction will reduce the differential tax rate. Therefore, if your declaration results in a refund, it will increase the amount of the refund and if the result of the declaration is positive, it will reduce the amount to be paid.
