On the other hand, if only one of the parents is entitled to the minimum for descendants, he or she will apply the deduction for the total amount paid with the maximum limit of 600 euros.
In the event of the death of one of the parents entitled to the minimum for descendants, a 50% deduction will be applied to each of the parents up to the date of death and subsequently the deduction will be applied to the entire amount paid to the surviving spouse.
