Most of the world-wide tax literature is written in German. There might be two or three professor who understand every detail and every exception of the rules. E.g. there were tax exempt amounts for investments in container ships or Hollywood movies which are abolished nowadays. Tax declaration could be rocket science.

The writing on the payslip is on the small side. Using the zoom facility would have made the payslip larger and therefore easier to read and follow.

Awesome video, thank you so much for your help! This video helped me A LOT! I love your channel and the content you both do! I just received my first payment (started working in the middle of the month, not a full month yet), however I didn't saw any deductions for the KV (Health Insurance). Do you know any reasons about why is this deduction not happening?
@simplegermany
@simplegermany 2 жыл бұрын
Happy to hear! 😊 Regarding your KV that is interesting. A few ideas pop to our minds. Have you informed your employer of your health insurance? Are you privately insured? In that case, maybe your employer does not cover 50% or doesn't deduct your part. We would suggest you speak with your HR or supervisor as soon as possible to find out what's going on.

As an American this is so interesting!! 👍🏻 Is it common to retire on the social security / pensions? Or do many Germans have to save up a lot of money also? I’m not sure if it’s mentioned in another video.
@simplegermany

Hey Leslie, due to the demographic change, the German pension scheme is no longer fully serving as the only means to live from. In German it is often referred to as the pension gap, which our generation will most likely encounter when going into pension. So for us it is super important to also save up/invest privately.

Me getting paid for the first time today having absolutely no idea what is going on. All I noticed was that there was a deduction and I didn't get what it was for since in my home country, there are no deductions made on gross salary (unless you pissed off your employer xD) so I was kinda confused. But this video helped tremendously!

The basic structure has not changed, but of course everyone’s payslip will look slightly different depending on contract benefits etc.. if you mean Krankenversicherung it has to be on your payslip if you are employed for more hours than a Minijob.

Hello, thanks sharing these types of valuable information. Actually I have lived in Germany about 5 years ago and worked there and I have got payslips too. Unfortunately I leave those country and I lost those all supporting documents which are related about the job. Could you give me suggestions how can I get those payslips after 5years from south east Asia. Is it possible to getting it without contact the employer. Thanks for your time Warmest regards

To be honest, we would think you would only be able to get them through your employer as they issued them.

Hello guys, I received my first payslip and it looks exactly like this..I just have a question about the amount at the bottom of the payslip under SV-AG-Anteil, from my understanding thats the employer's part of social securtiy countribution correct ? Also are there other social security insurances that don't appear in my payslip like accident insurance or equipment? Thanks in advance

No, what she mean with long-term care is a nursing home for the elderly/disabled population. This gets paid from the Pflegeversicherung, but also nursing assistance to the above mentioned people who still live at home.
