Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the administrative fine for violating reporting obligations under AHVG/AHVV was lawful.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The fine was lawful because the annual payroll return was not proven to have been filed in time, the company bore the posting risk, and the violation was culpable.
Extrahierte Begründung
The fund had lawfully reminded and then warned the company; the later e-mailed documents were incomplete and arrived only after the discretionary assessment had become final. Unregistered mailing meant the company could not prove timely posting, so the documents were treated as not filed.
