Einkommensbereinigung

Einkommensbereinigung is the cleaning-up of your income before it is counted against your benefits: taxes, social insurance, work-related costs, and allowances are deducted first. Only the remaining amount reduces your Bürgergeld. Review the calculation sheet attached to your Bescheid — forgotten deductions (e.g. insurance flat rate of 30 EUR) are a common reason to object.

In plain German

Von Ihrem Einkommen werden erst bestimmte Beträge abgezogen, bevor es angerechnet wird.

What it means

Einkommensbereinigung is the cleaning-up of your income before it is counted against your benefits: taxes, social insurance, work-related costs, and allowances are deducted first. Only the remaining amount reduces your Bürgergeld. Review the calculation sheet attached to your Bescheid — forgotten deductions (e.g. insurance flat rate of 30 EUR) are a common reason to object.

تنقية الدخل (Einkommensbereinigung) هي خصم مبالغ معينة من دخلك قبل احتسابه على إعاناتك: الضرائب والتأمينات الاجتماعية وتكاليف العمل والإعفاءات تُخصم أولاً. المبلغ المتبقي فقط هو الذي يخفض إعانة Bürgergeld. راجع ورقة الحساب المرفقة بقرارك، فالخصومات المنسية (مثل مبلغ التأمين الثابت 30 يورو) سبب شائع للاعتراض.

As it appears in letters

Nach Einkommensbereinigung gemäß § 11b SGB II verbleibt ein anzurechnendes Einkommen von 412,00 EUR.
