KathyAnna O Canada ASKER 14:00 Dec 16, 2016  Thank you, abzüglich sounds just right :) Björn Vrooman Steffen 09:18 Dec 13, 2016  I think that was a layout choice by whoever created the table (to differentiate between total amounts and what is being subtracted; I've seen something like that before). At least, I can't think of any possible reason for a placeholder here. Steffen Walter Germany @ Björn 08:28 Dec 13, 2016  Thank you, that looks pretty convincing. The only remaining question is what the ---- stand for. Björn Vrooman 05:53 Dec 13, 2016  @Armorel and Cilian Take a look at page 2 (middle): http://www.petra-sitte.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Steuerb... It's not any different on my tax returns - every time they write "ab," it means "abzüglich." Steffen should have these papers too :) Cilian O'Tuama Germany Ich auch - Jahreszahl/Datum 23:44 Dec 12, 2016  Agree with Steffen and Armorel Armorel Young Agree with Steffen 16:31 Dec 12, 2016  My first thought is that the blank is to be filled in with a date - until we knows whether or not that is the case, we can't offer meaningful answers. KathyAnna O Canada ASKER 16:30 Dec 12, 2016  I don't quite understand the "ab" word here. Is it abbr. for 'abgezogen'? does it mean those amounts under "Sonderausgaben" are deductible? Steffen Walter Germany It's not quite clear ... 16:20 Dec 12, 2016  ... what ---- stands for. Is this perhaps a placeholder for a year? Automatic update in 00:
