Instead of the tax class combination IV / IV or III / V, spouses / partners can apply for tax class IV in connection with a factor, the so-called factor procedure.
- For each spouse / partner, the tax-relieving regulations are applied to their own income tax deduction (e.g. basic allowance).
- The tax-reducing effect of the splitting procedure is taken into account.
- The tax class combination IV / IV with factor leads to a different distribution of wage tax between the spouses / life partners than the tax class combination III / V: the wage tax increases compared to tax class III and decreases compared to tax class V.
- Any exempt amount (e.g. due to income-related expenses above the employee lump sum) affects the calculation of the factor and is therefore not added to the factor.
- Classification in tax class IV with a factor is valid for two years.
- If the wages change, the change of the factor can be requested.
- Changes to the detriment of the spouse / partner (e.g. a lower allowance) must be reported to the tax office immediately.
