Field help: (2022) Did <%0500107%> belong to your household in 2022?

Please specify whether the child belonged to your household in the previous year.

Important: The child also belongs to your household if he/she was temporarily accommodated elsewhere or if you lived elsewhere together with the child, for example, with parents or parents-in-law. In addition, a child may also belong to several households, for example, if the parents live separately and the child lives alternately with both mother and father.

If the child belonged to your household in the past year, you may, under certain circumstances, be able to claim the childcare costs in your tax return or, if applicable, also be able to make use of the tax relief allowance for single parents.

If the child did not belong to your household, the childcare costs will not usually be recognised by the tax authorities.
