Taxpayers may deduct the amount of 300 euros for each minor under a simple, permanent, provisional or pre-adoptive family care regime, administrative or judicial, formalized by the competent body in matters of minors of the Xunta de Galicia.

In the case of foster care of minors through marriage, or by de facto couples referred to in the Third Additional Provision of Law 2/2006, of June 14, on civil law in Galicia, the amount of the deduction will be prorated equally in the declaration of each of them, if they opt for the individual declaration.

Please note that Law 26/2015, which modifies the system of protection for children and adolescents, has modified, with effect from 18 August 2015, the modalities of foster care.

REQUIREMENTS AND OTHER CONDITIONS:

  • The taxpayer must live with the minor for 183 or more days during the tax period. If the period of cohabitation during the tax period is less than 183 days and more than 90 days, the amount of the deduction for each minor taken in will be 150 euros .

  • The minor must not be related to the taxpayer.

  • There will be no right to the deduction in the case of pre-adoptive foster care when the adoption of the minor has taken place during the tax period, without prejudice to the application, where appropriate, of the deduction for adoption.

  • The practice of this deduction will be conditioned to the adequate and sufficient documentary justification of the factual assumption and the requirements that determine its applicability.
