30% reduction does not apply if income (severance and medical insurance) is not attributed to a single tax period

A worker inquired whether the reduction for irregular income could be applied to a mutual agreement severance package that included medical insurance payments. The DGT ruled that the reduction is not applicable because the medical insurance is not attributed to a single tax period.

The question raised

Question posed: Application of the reduction provided for in Article 18.2 of the Personal Income Tax Law to the compensation for termination of the employment relationship received by the taxpayer.

The DGT's ruling

The 30% reduction provided for in Article 18.2 of the Personal Income Tax Law (LIRPF) for income obtained in a notoriously irregular manner requires that such income be imputed to a single tax period. Upon receiving compensation along with medical insurance whose duration is not limited to the period of termination, the imputation of both concepts does not correspond to a single tax period; therefore, the reduction is not applicable.
