How to fill out a tax return if Ukrainian refugees live / lived in your country?

The Dutch government does not want families who have accepted refugees from Ukraine to experience any adverse tax consequences. On Online The tax office (Belastingdienst) on March 1 issued recommendations for filling out tax returns for 2022 for host families.

Income tax assessment for host families

If you received refugees from Ukraine in 2022 and they were registered at your address, this must be reflected in your tax return. If this is not done, then income tax will be charged against you.

The nuances of filling out the declaration

1. To the question "Did someone live with you in 2022?" (Had u in 2022 een huisgenoot?) you answer "Yes" if one or more refugees have been registered at your address.
2. If you answer the questions on your tax return and see the notice “You are not a tax partner of *refugee name*”, you do not need to do anything.
3. If you do not see this notice, it means that the tax authorities regard you as a tax partner of a refugee.

This can happen if a minor child of one of you is registered at the address. To avoid negative tax consequences, call the tax information center — Belastingtelefoon.
