1  Income from self-employment is for 2003 not comparable with previous and later years, due to revised routines and rules as a result of increased use of net registration. The agricultural deductions are deducted from the income of self-employed before registration in the tax return.
2  Revised rules for estimating received child maintenance were introduced 1 October 2003. From this date, received child maintenance will no longer be taxable income. This may generate comparability problems in respect to previous years. As from 2004, this post includes introduction benefits for new imigrants.
3  From 2003 this amount no longer includes training allowance or travel money for refugees. As from 2004 it includes received child support managed by public arrangements. Child support received through private arrangements is not included.
4  This amount contains paid child maintenance. Revised rules for estimating paid child maintenance were introduced 1 October 2003. From this date, paid maintenance can no longer be deducted from gross income. This may generate problems in respect to comparability to previous years. As from 2004 it includes paid child support managed by public arrangements. Child support paid through private arrangements is not included.
