The expert explained the attitude of the tax service to transfers from relatives

The tax service has the right to request explanations on regular receipts to an individual's card, however, transfers from parents themselves are not grounds for personal income tax accrual. Dmitry Shumeyko, an expert on taxes and tax audits, told about this on September 27.

"Parents can transfer money to their child every month. For example, for 30, 100 or 300 thousand rubles. The law does not set an optional limit for receiving gifts between individuals," said Shumeyko. Lenta.Ru .

According to the expert, when evaluating such transactions, it is not the fact of money entering a bank card that is important, but the economic meaning of the transfer. If the funds are used to help pay for housing, education, medical treatment, or are given as a gift, no tax is required.

It clarifies that the risk of personal income tax arises if family assistance actually hides payment for work, services, rental of property or goods. To avoid questions, it is recommended that you specify the purpose of the payment when making transfers, and for large amounts, keep statements, kinship documents, and evidence of the nature of the transaction.
