Steuererklärungen als steuerpflichtige Rentner:in oder Pensionär:in abgeben (EinfachELSTER)
Are you a pensioner or retiree? Then you can submit your tax return in the simplified procedure via the einfachELSTER portal.
Basic information
Your domestic pension income or pensions and data on health and long-term care insurance are already available to the tax office. Therefore, you do not have to enter this information in your tax return with einfachELSTER-Portal.
You only have to answer a few questions, for example, about donations, medical bills, disability, household-related services and craftsmen's costs.
Requirements
You can use the einfachELSTER portal if you receive domestic pensions or annuities.
In addition, you may only have the following income:
- Investment income from which final withholding tax has already been paid to the tax office or for which the saver's allowance has been claimed (exemption order),
- Income from mini-jobs
If you are married or in a registered civil partnership and wish to file a joint declaration, these requirements must apply to you and the other person.
