In business subrogation, the existence of more than one payer is not considered for the threshold of the obligation to file a tax return

A query is made as to whether a worker subrogated by a new company has one or two payers to determine their obligation to file an IRPF tax return. The DGT responds that, in these cases, the new employer maintains the status of the same employer and the existence of more than one payer does not occur.

The question raised

For the purpose of determining the obligation to file for the 2015 period, an inquiry is made regarding the existence of one or two payers as a consequence of business subrogation.

The DGT's ruling

In cases of business subrogation, the transferee maintains the status of the same employer for the purpose of determining the applicable withholding rate. Therefore, the existence of more than one payer does not occur for the purposes of the threshold for the obligation to file a tax return. The threshold for not being required to file a tax return shall be 22,000 euros annually, provided that there are no earnings subject to a fixed rate.
