RdC, Salvini: “Increase disability pensions and extend the Flat Tax up to 100,000 euros in turnover”
“There are still too many ‘income cunning‘, tax evaders, swindlers and illegal immigrants. The League is working to find a majority in Parliament that will help us take away a portion of the money (not 5 euros a month!) Destined for the clever ones to increase disability pensions and extend the Flat Tax up to 100,000 euros in turnover “. these words the secretary of the League Matteo Salvini answers the question of Affaritaliani.it whether the changes envisaged by the government to citizenship income are sufficient or whether more stringent rules are needed.
THE POLL BY AFFARITALIANI.IT/ Are the changes to citizenship income sufficient or, as Salvini says, are other more stringent interventions needed?
This morning is yet another case of ‘income cunning’. Over 9 thousand people were denounced by the Financiers of the Provincial Command of the Guardia di Finanza of Cremona and Novara on the orders of the Milan Public Prosecutor’s Office, which carried out 16 pre-trial detention orders in prison against members of a criminal association aimed at extortion and obtaining public funds, including, in particular, citizenship income. The arrests and searches conducted in the provinces of Cremona, Lodi, Brescia, Pavia, Milan, Andria, Barletta and Agrigento, made it possible to foil a scam of over 60 million euros relating to undue perceptions of citizenship income.
How citizenship income changes
Refusal of job offers
The most important change concerns precisely the question of active policies and reintegration into the world of work. In fact, at the first refusal of an offer of employment, the amount of citizenship income will be reduced. If a “niet” also arrives at the second job offer, the beneficiary will be deprived of financial support.
Large and single families
Large families (particularly those with dependent minor children) will receive a higher allowance. In parallel, smaller amounts will be awarded to singles and smaller families. Two examples, one way or the other. If the changes are accepted by the classroom, a family of six with four children without income and on rent can have up to 1,540 euros per month of allowance compared to the current 1,330, while a single will stop at 450 euros per month.
Contribution for the rent
The rent contribution should no longer be the same for all households but should be calculated based on the size of the family.
Check for foreigners
In this case, the proposal is to reduce the period of residence in Italy necessary to receive the citizenship income from 10 to 5 years. According to the scientific committee, this would be a “reasonable and in line with the EU” compromise on the issue of support for poverty. It would cost the State 300 million and would make it possible to include another 68,000 families in the audience of beneficiaries.
Calculation of the amount
According to the experts of the committee for calculating the amount of the allowance, the income from work should be considered for 60% and not 80%.
Fair job offer
For a job offer to a citizen income earner to be considered “appropriate” – and therefore subject to evaluation when the refusal of the same is judged – from a temporal point of view, the proposed contract should necessarily exceed one month , without however going beyond a duration of three months “to encourage – the committee said – people often very distant from the labor market to enter and gain experience”. On the front of the distance from the beneficiary’s residence, however, the offer should arrive by a company (or office or other employer) located within eighty kilometers of the beneficiary’s residence or in any case reachable within a maximum time limit of one hundred minutes by public transport, if it is a first offer. The approach on the second offer is more rigorous, which, for the purposes of assessing the confirmation of citizenship income, can be placed anywhere in the Italian territory.
More frequent checks
The crackdown on the controls is already included in the text of the maneuver. In fact, ex ante verifications of residence and asset requirements will be strengthened.
