The deduction, known as RUT, covers services such as cleaning, maintenance and laundry. As a Swedish taxpayer, you are entitled to a reduction of the final tax you owe for the current income year, regardless of whether it is capital tax, income tax, etc., by 50% for the labor cost of the procured service. The maximum amount of the RUT deduction per year and person is, depending on the exchange rate, approximately $6,250.
The second deduction, called ROT, covers services such as repairs, renovations and extensions and is declared in the same way as RUT, with the only difference being that it is lower. The maximum amount is approximately $4,200 per year per person and amounts to only 30% of the labor cost.
The left in Sweden claims that a deduction is a type of benefit. But to be able to make a deduction, you must first be liable to pay tax. In contrast to receiving a benefit where there is no counter-requirement that you must first be required to pay taxes. Therefore, a deduction can never be a benefit.
When the Left is faced with the proposal to abolish all benefits and convert them into deductions because, according to their reasoning, "it is the same thing", they always choose not to respond.
