Overview
- President Juanfran Pérez Llorca announced that the expanded deductions will apply retroactively in the next income-tax campaign starting in April.
- Eligibility widens to individual filers earning up to €60,000 and joint filers up to €78,000, a change officials say will directly reach more than 300,000 contributors.
- Covered expenses include dentist and optician costs, sports activities, mental health care, rare diseases, and Alzheimer’s, with examples such as 30% up to €150 for dental and mental health and up to €100 for lenses and solutions.
- The administration says nearly one million residents will benefit and argues revenue rose 7.4% in the region, while the PSOE labels the plan a “scam” that fails to address housing, healthcare, and education.
- Several deductions previously restricted to lower thresholds—such as sport and certain health expenses capped at €32,000 and cultural passes at €50,000—are now accessible under the higher income limits.
