Current position

Under the community property regime, ownership of the dwelling is determined by the proportion of the contributions made by each spouse and the community property. Amounts paid using community property funds to amortize a loan are imputed equally to each spouse. In the individual tax return, each spouse may include 50% of said amounts in their deduction base, subject to the limit of 9,040 euros per year.

The DGT's position remains constant regarding the imputation of 50% of community property payments to each spouse. The doctrine has reiterated that the original owner can only account for their proportional share of the common payments. No changes in criterion are observed, but rather a systematic confirmation of the distribution of ownership and payments according to the contributions.
