Steuer absetzen von Zahnspangen?
Aufgrund Probleme mit meinem Kiefer habe ich Aligner Zahnschienen vom Kieferorthopäde. Das ganze kostet mit allem drum und dran Untersuchung + alle Schienen 5500€. Die Krankenkasse bezahlt das nicht. Kann das ich von der Steuer absetzen? Wenn ich 20.000 € im Jahr verdiene und 214 Euro für freiwiliige Krankenkasse und Pflegeversicherung zahle, muss ich dann 11932€ versteuern (20000-5500-(214*12))? Somit nur 1000 Euro über steuerfreibetrag? Stimmt das so? Muss ich dem Finanzamt dann die Rechungen zusenden?

These are exceptional charges according to § 33 Income Tax Act. However, the amount is not to be reduced by contributions to health insurance, but to the reasonable burden, see § 33 para. 3.

The costs for the braces (and what is so) minus the reimbursements by the sickness insurance fund are exceptional charges and may be indicated as such as tax reduction within the scope of the tax return.
… taking into account the reasonable self-load.
correct but insignificant for consideration
Yes, you can deduct the costs, but according to the reasonable self-load. You can read EStG in Para 33 (3). Apparently, the reasonable own burden is 6% of the taxable income.
Yes, if your disease costs exceed the reasonable burden in one year. How you calculate it is explained here:

Like other medically necessary payments, tooth chips can be used as “extraordinary loads” to reduce tax. A reasonable burden of 2% of the annual income is calculated.
At €20,000 annual income, therefore, amounts of more than €400 would reduce the taxable income.
That’s not correct. The 2% refers to the payments of the sickness insurance fund (as a percentage of its own). With chronic illness 1%.
The EStG has a different staggering, which is between 1% and 7%, depending on income and family status. At 20,000, single without children, in my opinion 6% would be reasonable (para. 33 EStG)
So from the 5500 can I drop 4300?
and how do you prove it’s not purely cosmatic?
This should be called medically necessary in the calculation of the oral surgeon. (Suns would not pay the health insurance)
Thank you, I will go. would otherwise be to the tax advisor, but that is too expensive
That’s not bad anymore, the GKV doesn’t pay much. But there are almost always reasons why cosmetic treatment can also be medically sensible. And there are sloping teeth that are difficult to clean. A pine orthodontic would probably confirm that.
What I meant is “yes, right, you understood the principle of the invoice”. And that it is not calculated by gross but by a lower amount and you can probably lower more.
After that I wrote that I mean that the basic amount is already down, but I’m sure I’m not there. Either the x% is calculated from the sum before or after the basic amount. In my memory, that’s what’s happening to me. Tax is so complicated in D that it is really hard to calculate anything without exact numbers.
Your invoice is M. E. Contentally complete and incorrectly sorted. In the tax decision, there are different subtotals that are relevant. What is missing: contributions to the pensioner, advertising cost package, donations. And of course, you must not drop the full 5,500 from the brace.
If it’s your first time, I’d go to a payroll agency. You pay an annual contribution after income. It’s very low with you. They make your full tax for you and use everything that’s good for you. If necessary, they also make the contradiction for you.
I don’t have an old tax ruling. Will be my first tax return. But why did you agree to me upstairs with “Yes, exactly.” They’re the 4300s wrong I can put down. 20000-2600(Krankasse, Pflegeverich.)-5500(Zahnspange)-10900(Grundfreigeld) = 1000 income to be taxed. And 5% are 50 euros and not 1200. So can I deduct from the € 5500 € 4450? Or am I completely wrong?
I mean, this is calculated by taxable income, so what remains in the tax return at the end. In fact, the basic amount would have to be deducted.
Look at an old tax decision. It should be quite obvious.
“The 6% are calculated by taxable income”
Is that also after medical insurance withdrawal?
Then, in any case, you need the statement of the orthodontist that this treatment is useful.
She doesn’t. as I have already written in my question, “The health insurance does not pay.”
Yeah, right. Probably even a little more. The 6% are calculated from taxable income, so after advertising costs, special expenses and all of this have been deducted. You may even slip below the 15,000 and the % rate is reduced.
6 % are € 1,200. Then your taxable income would decrease by another € 4,300. If this doesn’t turn out to be purely cosmetic. Then the private pleasure.
