PSOE and Add agree that SMI perceptors do not have to pay TRPF in 2025 | Economy
The PSOE and add, or the first and second vice presidency of the Government, have closed the political pact about the IRPF to compensate for that 20% of the SMI perceptors, basically single without children, who now have to pay this tax. In the absence of some technical fringe, the political agreement has been reached this morning after a strong tension between María Jesús Montero and Yolanda Díaz. The Government will not have to veto the initiative to add, which will foreseeably withdraw before.
The second vice president of the government, Yolanda Díaz, had accused this morning in a Telecinco interview with the first vice president, María Jesús Montero, to get up from The table in which they sought an agreement on the taxation of the minimum interprofessional salary: « Around 10 o’clock yesterday, the Treasury got up from the table where we were negotiating, » said Díaz, who has assured that since the beginning of the conversations he has sent the Minister of Finance « more than five proposals to try to reach an agreement. »
« We were negotiating through our teams, that of the Minister of Finance and mine, but at 10 at night she gave the instruction to get up from that table. I have not built my team or my responsible for the negotiation, » the second vice president continued, who has argued that “citizenship has to know that today at 10 in the morning there is a table (of the Congress of the Deputies) and now we are now He is going to practice the PSOE ”and, in his opinion, of the words of Montero » she oozes that it seems that the minimum wage is very high in Spain, « he criticized.
The Ministry of Finance, meanwhile, maintains that the positions are very « remote. » He defends that the pact with adding was that the minimum wage reached 60% of the average salary. « That is the commitment. We never agreed that, regardless of what the SMI rises, it is guaranteed that IRPF will never pay, » he said before Diaz’s statements in Telecinco. The idea of the Treasury is that future increases in the minimum wage are disconnected from the debate on taxation. The head of Department, María Jesús Montero, already He had made it clear yesterday at the press conference in which he presented the 2024 budget closing data. « It is logical to think that, to the extent that these salary income goes up, they have to contribute proportionally to the support of public coffers, » he said.
The SMI increase by 2025, of 4.4%, forces about 20% of the perceptors of this basic salary to be taxed by IRPF via retentions. Until now, the SMI increases had been accompanied by an adaptation in the minimum tax exempt so that this effect did not occur. Now, given the pressure of adding, the PSOE seeks a surgical measure so that this year those affected can be deducted that quota, but rejects that the fiscal benefit is updated as new salary increases are approved.
According to Díaz, all political formations agree to “exempt from taxation and comply with 60% of the average net salary. The hemicycle, almost complete Unions of 50 euros, 22 go directly to taxation, ”he has detailed. From Hacienda they emphasize that 80% of the minimum wage receivers would not have to pay after the rise and the remaining 20% would only do so for 20 euros.
The deadline for presenting the veto to the proposal of the law of adding It ended this Fridaybut the Congress table still has several days to take it to debate and vote. This body must discuss the veto at the next meeting since the government is sent, a period that can be extended until Tuesday, April 8.
