Legal Advice on Divorce and Change of Address

Questioner

Good afternoon, Due to a divorce my sister would like to register at my home address. However she will not be staying at my address, does this have tax-technical legal consequences Daniel???? It concerns a purchased home......

You can help your sister temporarily via a room rental contract. If this concerns a purchased house, this will not be officially allowed without the bank's permission. However, the contract serves as proof for the tax authorities that assets are separated so that there is no mixing resulting in a reduction in benefits. You will also still be entitled to interest deduction in box 1 on condition that the rent remains below the exemption threshold.
