Pensioners from the Sardinia Region treated as still employees and the Supplementary Supplementary Fund (Fitq) equated to a treatment provided by a supplementary fund while the deductions to be applied would be those from the compulsory pension.

There are hundreds of people, including those who receive retirement pensions and reversibility pensions, who find themselves having to deal with unique certifications that do not match. In many cases one is forced to turn to the Caaf: it is impossible, in fact, to use the pre-compiled form which shows system errors in the event of changes to the 730. Some have attempted to accept the Cu sent and move forward with the simplified model but instead of being usually "on credit" they found themselves with a debt situation of up to thousands of euros. The situation is well known to all those who manage the regional CAAFs who, in an already hot period in terms of tax deadlines, are doing a surplus of work.

The INPS has been informed of the problem and we hope for periodic adjustments which, however, could also arrive at the beginning of September, in the Cesarini area for the sending of the tax declaration. The authorized tax assistance centers of the CGIL have received a circular in recent days explaining the disservice.

«This year - says Francesca Ziccheddu, Caaf Cgil Cagliari manager - many taxpayers who have the Fitq have gone to our offices and we have noticed that the INPS CUs apply employee deductions and in the notes we read that the taxpayer does not has the obligation to declare while instead it has two certifications, that of the INPS and that of the Fitq. Then there are the adjustments for which many former employees found themselves in debt."

In the Cisl Caaf it is not the first time that we have had to deal with errors: «We are working to find a solution and in some cases it is possible to change the data of the days worked but during checks by the revenue agency new issues could arise without a rectification from the INPS - observes Roberto Demontis, head of Caf Cisl Sardinia - the problem is also upstream: in 2025 it will be 10 years from the announcement of the pre-compiled form as a viaticum to facilitate the presentation of the 730. We are still far away from this objective."

Meanwhile, the regional offices let it be known, on the basis of an interpretation given by the Revenue Agency, that the nature of the supplementary treatment of the Fitq is that of a main pension, «given that this benefit cannot be equated with a treatment provided by a supplementary fund and consequently the deductions to be applied are those from the compulsory pension".

Furthermore, the Fund "acquires exclusively the information relating to the rate to be applied from the response flow sent from the register" and that the INPS "is the only entity authorized to manage deductions".

«Considering the situation, every effort is being made to resolve the problem with the INPS with the hope of correct application of the deductions for the year 2024 (i.e. those foreseen for compulsory pension payments) and the processing of Cu by the 'Inps that are aligned with those developed by Fitq", the Region further states. The discussions are still ongoing.
