Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a disability pension from tied pension provision (pillar 3a) counts as rent income for contribution assessment of a non-employed person.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The private disability pension is income contributing to maintenance and must be included in the contribution base.
Extrahierte Begründung
Rent income is to be understood broadly; decisive is whether the payment contributes to the person's support and affects social circumstances. The exemption for Swiss IV pensions is based on avoiding self-financing of the insurance and does not extend to third-pillar disability pensions.
