UFNS for the Republic of Tatarstan: the deduction for medical treatment is available to pensioners with income or through a spouse.

      The Federal Tax Service for the Republic of Tatarstan continues to receive inquiries from citizens regarding tax deductions. One of the frequently asked topics is the possibility of obtaining a social deduction for paid medical services by non-working pensioners. According to the information received, a key condition for providing the deduction is the presence of income subject to personal income tax (PIT). Pension payments are not taxed; therefore, a non-working pensioner does not have a tax base for PIT refund. It is impossible to obtain a deduction solely based on a pension.

      At the same time, legislation provides for exceptions. A portion of the funds can be refunded if there are other taxable incomes, such as from renting out property, selling real estate or vehicles, as well as under civil law contracts.

      Expenses incurred by a pensioner for paid medical services can be claimed for a deduction by a working spouse, according to the agency. For this, the clinic must issue a payment certificate in the spouse's name. If children paid for their parents' treatment, the child can claim the deduction — the certificate is issued to the person who incurred the expenses.

      The declaration can be submitted within three years after the year in which the expenses were incurred. The maximum amount of expenses eligible for deduction is 150,000 rubles — the amount of tax to be refunded is 19,500 rubles. The deduction cannot exceed the amount of PIT actually paid for the year.

      Thus, a non-working pensioner can only reclaim tax for treatment if there is official income subject to PIT or by filing a deduction through a working spouse. The main thing is to properly prepare the documents and submit the declaration within three years. Detailed information is available on the website of the Federal Tax Service of Russia.
