All in all, with an indexation of the basic deduction, this means that a person with a pension of SEK 25,000 a month gets SEK 3,400 more in their wallet per year, the government parties and the Sweden Democrats write on The express debate.
“Inflation causes major problems for households – increased costs drain household coffers and mean that ordinary wage earners see their real wages decrease at a rapid rate. At the same time, it hits pensioners’ finances hard,” write M, KD, L and SD.
The basic deduction is increased
The proposal means that the increased basic deduction is raised in the same way as the employment tax deduction, according to the parties.
“Together with the employment tax deduction we presented, this means that it will pay off better both to work and to have worked in and with the budget next year.”
The government has previously announced that it wants to lower the tax for the “57s”, who got into trouble when the retirement age was raised.
