Posted 17 January Hi, I am preparing Elterngeld applicaiton for my wife. She had shares in UK LTD and that company is also closed. I just want to know if income from company shares will be counted in the Elterngeld assessment? Although she did not get dividends. Just checked on Elterngeld office website and came to know that Income from shares does not fall under self employment. Do we need to declare that income in the Elterngeld application? Regards, Warshad 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 18 January Capital gains are not considered for calculating how much you'll get. Generally, they consider income that's subject to income tax in Germany. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
