A couple with two children
Two salaries under the €100,000 family limit, two children, a rented home.
Checked on 25 September 2026
The case
A parent paid €45,000 a year, married to a spouse paid €35,000. They have two children and rent their home, paying more than €2,000 a year in rent.
The figures are this parent’s own return; the spouse files separately. The spouse’s salary counts here only because the limit for the 2026 deductions is tested on the family’s income.
What to notice
- The family deductions exist only from 2026, and only while the family’s gross income is within the limit — €100,000 for a couple with one or two children. This family is at €80,000.
- In 2026 this return deducts €4,250: €1,000 for the first child, €1,250 for the second and €2,000 for the rent. With the new bands, income tax falls from €4,839 to €2,899.
