... You are also asked if you open an account whether you are employed and contribute to a pensionskasse...
Contribution rules are:
  1. If you do not have a pension plan, then you can contribute 20% of income. Maximum deduction is approx 30k.
  2. If you do have a pension plan, then maximum is approx 6k.
Criterion 1 enables a larger contribution for high-income taxpayers. Criterion 2 is better for us low-income "salalyma"! Of course, deduction cannot exceed income.
