Although the delivery of the 2025 Income Tax declaration begins only on April 1st, taxpayers have until February 17th to fulfill some essential obligations with the Federal Revenue Service (AT). These measures are crucial to ensure data is up to date and to benefit from applicable tax deductions.
Household Update

- Death, marriage or divorce;
- Birth or adoption of children;
- Change of permanent residence;
- Change of parental agreement;
- Dependents who no longer meet the requirements to be considered as such.
This information is essential so that tax deductions relating to family composition are correctly applied.
Education in interior regions or autonomous regions
Taxpayers with dependents attending educational establishments in interior regions or autonomous regions must also communicate this situation by February 17th. This data can influence the tax benefits attributed by the location of the education.
Moving residence to the interior
