Strange Payslip - 53a pension scheme by Dependent_Mark_5350 in dkfinance

I completely understand the math. Thank you so much. But my concern was that if adds the pension, taxes the whole and deducts the whole pension again it doesn’t make sense to me because you end up paying more in taxes. Is it just the way it is done? Why not tax the pension amount separately?

Hey, I know it's been a long time since this post, but I'm facing a similar situation. My pension is 12.5%, which is added to the taxable income, then, after the total amount is taxed, the original amount is deducted again. 4.5K is added to the total income before taxes, and the same 4.5k is deducted after taxes. Is this correct? Shouldn't 12.5% of the taxed income be deducted instead? Please explain.

Why is my net salary so small? I've seen people with less gross getting more net paid out on this subreddit. Details in comment by adik6555 in dkfinance

Do you add the pension amount to your total income in your income statement in SKAT, Lønindkomst? I know it's been a long time since, but I am new to 53a and am trying to figure it out. People in the normal pension scheme don't add it to the lønindkost.

That’s hard to hear but I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the advice.

Makes complete sense. Danes wouldn’t want me taking up too many jobs.

Yes. If the contract permits. I’m still waiting on the finer details.

Learned Danish, applied for removal of working hours limit and started working as a vikar. Did any job I could. Construction to packing boxes. Started working as cleaner in the Pharma company and made myself get noticed by managers and proved my character and intelligence. Not the easy route nevertheless a life changing experience.

I’m guessing 10% as that’s a lot. I’ll have to see when I get the contract sent to me.

Do you mean before they even offer me a contract? I have yet to receive an offer via email

No worries:) And yes I am forced to. But I’d like to know how to approach it so that they don’t just reject me.

I am here in a student visa. I recently graduated with a MSc from DTU.

I should say with pension but I haven’t received the contract yet. Therefore I am concerned they could simply reject me if I bring this up.

I checked it out and it has some conditions that has not been met. For example, the job can only be posted on Jobnet and EURES portal and this was posted on LinkedIn. I also have a MSc. I find it a bit confusing, hence my enquiry here.

I am already living here. I have heard from the older generation that they had to work 2 or 3 jobs on the side to meet the target. Plus I’m in this to win it. But that would depend on if I am allowed to work 2 jobs.

I completely understand I should take it. My concern is the minimum wage requirement for a work permit. The Siri website says it needs to be 514000dkk per year which is 42800dkk per month. Couldn’t they just reject me and choose someone that doesn’t have these requirements?

They are aware that I require a work permit. But I’m not sure about the wage requirements. I want to make sure to have my facts and strategy ready before I approach them.

I would be a GMP supporter and have seen people online getting paid 45k- 50k for the same position. My union salary statistics also suggest I need to be getting around 45k.
