The Administrative Court dismissed the taxpayer's claim for a spousal income deduction in the 1984 tax year. The husband worked in Sweden all year without Finnish income, while his wife was taxed in Finland and claimed the deduction. The court ruled that the deduction was not applicable because the husband was considered a non-resident under the Nordic tax treaty, negating the condition for the benefit.

A, som under hela året 1984 arbetat på svenskt fartyg, hade

ingen inkomst i Finland. Hans beskattningsbara inkomst vid

statsbeskattningen och den därav utgående inkomstskatten

skulle ha varit högre än hans makas, men med beaktande av det

nordiska skatteavtalet påfördes mannen inte inkomstskatt i

Finland. Makan, som påförts inkomstskatt var berättigad till

försörjaravdrag. Skatteår 1984.

57 § 1 mom. 1 punkten och 57 § 2 mom. L om skatt på inkomst

och förmögenhet.
