Good afternoon!
I have declared my permanent departure and live in Germany. My husband doesn't pay tax on my retirement income when he declares his income tax, due to an agreement that I don't understand exactly what it is. My question is whether I've done the right thing by making my permanent departure, since I've just discovered that I have some restrictions in Brazil, including that of taking out a mortgage in Brazil, which I would need this coming year. Since Brazil and Germany don't have this double taxation agreement, what is the advantage of me declaring my permanent departure?October 9, 2023 at 8:18 am in reply to: Declaration of Final Departure in 2023: what it is and why you should do it #10205Jacqueline DantasParticipant::Good morning!
I discovered your website in one of my searches and found it very enlightening. I made my Final Exit Declaration in 2018 and notified the organization where I receive my pension when I moved to Germany. Since then, this agency has deducted tax at source under the "Resident Abroad" code, 25%. In Germany, my husband declares my income together with his. The thing is, I'm on vacation in Brazil and I found out two weeks ago, when I tried to transfer a small amount of money from there to Brazil, that my CPF was irregular. This is recent, as a month ago my CPF was in order. This situation is causing me enormous material and emotional damage. The fact is that, after a lot of research and even consulting the IRS, I discovered that they have been charging me for declarations since 2019. The organization I worked for is declaring the DIRF incorrectly and my income is shown on the annual income statement as "Taxable income". They knew from the start that there was an incompatibility between the DIRF and my non-resident status, but they still insisted on the error. They still don't know how to report the withholdings on the DIRF and are consulting the IRS and other bodies to rectify the DIRFs for these five years. So far, they have treated the situation with great disregard and disregard for me. I see that the way out is to hire a lawyer so that the situation can be regularized, since I'll be here in Brazil until November 23rd. Do you have a suggestion for this case or something that could help me resolve this situation? -
