For the tax years 2010 to 2018, written consent had to be given to the transfer of data; alternatively, there was a right to object. Consents that were not granted and objections raised are no longer valid from the 2019 tax year due to a legal change; all contribution data must now be transmitted to the tax authorities.
Frequently asked questions
In addition to benefits in lieu of earnings, health and long-term care insurance contributions paid or reimbursed as well as payments from optional tariffs and bonus programs are reported. If a co-insured family member participates in a bonus program, the payments are reported to the member.
The first 150 euros of a generally tax-relevant bonus are tax-free on the basis of a simplification rule of the Federal Ministry of Finance. If your total bonus is less than 150 euros, we therefore do not report this to the tax authorities.
For employees, the employer transmits the contributions to statutory health and long-term care insurance. This is done automatically with the electronic wage tax statement to the tax authorities. This also applies to employees with voluntary insurance, for whom the employer pays the contributions to the health insurance fund. For recipients of a statutory pension, the pension insurance provider takes over the notification.
If you pay your contributions directly to us, we will transmit the data. This also applies to payments from optional tariffs or bonus programs.
