Select "Yes" if you already receive a bereavement pension and want to apply for the bereavement allowance.
You are entitled to the bereavement allowance if you have been granted an ongoing bereavement pension. A bereavement pension is usually paid under the Federal War Victims' Relief Act (Bundesversorgungsgesetz), in line with Civil Service Law or under statutory accident insurance.
As proof of your entitlement, you must submit the following documents to the tax office, if they have not already been submitted in previous years:
- Pension approval statement or
- Statement from your pension fund
