Question juridique clé
Whether the partial repayment of a pension fund advance withdrawal for home ownership is deductible from gross income as a contribution to occupational pension provision.
Solution extraite
No. A repayment of a previously withdrawn pension advance is not a new purchase of additional contribution years and therefore is not deductible from gross income.
Motifs extraits
After the advance withdrawal, the taxpayer had lost contribution years. The later payment merely restored the lost years and was expressly a repayment to the pension institution. Allowing a deduction would create an unjustified tax privilege for persons who had made such advance withdrawals.
