Tax rate after childbirth - which year?
Hello all,
Long time reader, first time poster here.
I have what I think is a pretty straightforward question that I cannot find an answer for on the forum.
We (unmarried, C-permit holders in Zürich) got our first child in October 2018. When filing the tax declaration for 2018 in March, will we benefit from the lower tax rate (due to our child) already for the full tax year 2018, or will that not be taken into consideration until tax year 2019?
Also, I understand that only one of us can claim the child deduction. However, will both of us be able to move into the 1 child tax rate? Or is that also just for one parent.
Thanks in advance for any answers!
