You will receive a pension receipt notification ("Information on the notification to the tax authorities") from your insurance provider for every taxable pension benefit - pension amount and contributions to health and long-term care insurance - within a calendar year.
1. Pension receipt notification for state pensions
Pension receipt notifications for statutory pensions can be requested online at
www.deutsche-rentenversicherung.de/steuerbescheinigung.
If you received the form for your annual tax return in the past, an up-to-date printed version will now be sent to you by mail between mid-January and the end of February. You don't have to do anything else.
