Mandatory pension and unemployment insurance contributions

When your employer pays you, a pension contribution and unemployment insurance contribution are withheld from your gross pay. Your employer informs the Tax Administration of the amounts withheld and paid on to the insurers.

You can see these tax-deductible contributions under Pay, fees and compensation on your pre-completed tax return. Compare your final payslip for the previous year with your tax return to verify that the contributions are pre-completed as they should be.

Using MyTax to make corrections or to add information

The Pre-completed income and deductions stage contains the information available to the Tax Administration on your contributions. See section Pay, fees and compensation.

If you make corrections, select the link with your employer’s name. Scroll down to Deducted contributions. Now you can edit the pension contribution or the unemployment insurance contribution. Click the Add a deducted contribution button, if you see some but not all the amounts and you need to add a sum that was left out.
