About Proof for Family Support Money

Hi Everybody,

I am going to my home country very soon and would like to take money with me to support my parents and other relatives. to get a tax return , I need to show the proof for money transfer. Usually , bank receipts from the bank such as Western union are sufficient.

But , this time I am taking home the family-support money with me. What kind of proof
can I submit to Finanzamt for this money ? Air -tickets plus a certificate from the currency exchange center in my home country ?

Another issue is the tax benefit. How much percentage of the transferred money can I get as tax benefit ?

Your answers will be greatly appreciated.

With Regards,

Buetino,

Hi Buetino

For tax purposes the bank statement that money was taken out and the tickets is sufficent.

Certificate from exchange center will be added bonus.

I just used bank statement and tickets.
