Requirements and conditions

  • When both parents or adopters are entitled to the deduction and do not opt for joint taxation, the amount will be shared equally between them.

  • Only taxpayers who have not obtained income in the year in which the right to the deduction arises for an amount greater than 42,900 euros in their general tax base added to the savings tax base will be entitled to apply this deduction and in the case of joint taxation, when the family unit has not obtained income for an amount greater than 57,200 euros.

  • The determination of the order number of the born or adopted child will be made taking into account the children who live with the taxpayer on the date of accrual of the tax, taking into account both natural and adopted children.

  • The following will be considered to live with the taxpayer, among others, the children born or adopted who, depending on the taxpayer, are admitted to specialized centers

Completion

The data will be reflected in the row that corresponds to the order number that represents the child born or adopted, taking into account that the same child should only be reflected in the "Common" box or in the "Of the owner" box.

If several children were born or adopted during the year, each of them will be reflected in the row corresponding to their order number. For example, if two children have been born, the second and the third, the row for "first or second" will reflect 1 and the row for "third" will also reflect 1.

The above data will be reflected in the "Common" box when, in the case of marriage, the children who generate the right to the deduction are from both spouses and the order number is the same for both.

In another case or when there is a marriage and you have opted for individual data capture, the data will be reflected in the "Of the Holder" box, additionally indicating the number of people entitled to apply the deduction.

In the case of children born or adopted during the year with a disability of 65% or more, they will also be listed in the specific section of the window, reflecting in the row corresponding to their order number among those who have the required degree of disability in accordance with the same criteria mentioned above.
